Stewart Blasts Athletics, Royals Take Game 3, 5-3
The Kansas City Royals moved to within one game of the League Championship Series today, downing the Oakland Athletics on the road at Oakland Coliseum by a score of 5-3. Royals left fielder Shannon Stewart was 4 for 5 with a home run and 2 doubles, while scoring 2 times and driving in 3. The win gives the Royals a 2-1 advantage in the best-of-5 Division Series.

A key moment came with two out in the top of the ninth. That's when Stewart hit a curveball from Cecilio Guante for a run-scoring double, putting Kansas City up, 5-3.

"Nice to see our side come away with the win," Stewart said after the game.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Oakland Coliseum in Oakland.
