St. Louis had no answer for Kansas City Royals starter Tom Jensen, who flummoxed Cardinals hitters as the Royals cruised to victory, 7-1. The Cardinals, at 34-53, have lost 4 straight games.

Jensen was the winning pitcher. He raised his season record to 6-1. In 8 innings of work, Jensen gave up no runs on 2 hits, while striking out 6. The Cardinals were never able to generate much offense.

"Throwing strikes was the main thing," Jensen said.
