  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Minnesota Twins (6-9) 1 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 8 0

Royals Down Twins, 7-3
Kansas City rode a decent outing from starter John Hall to victory over the Minnesota Twins. The final score was 7-3. The loss makes the Twins 6-9.

Had Aaron Matthews not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 2nd, Matthews hit a 2-run triple. That made the score 5-3, in favor of the Royals.

Matthews called the win "a collective effort."
