Royals Sneak Past Twins, 6-5
Kansas City beat Minnesota at Target Field, eking out a 6-5 win. The win was due in large part to center fielder Tony Prado. He went 2 for 4 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Gan Ts'ong, credited with the win, is now 2-1. He allowed no runs on 1 hit. John Brooks was credited with the save, his 5th in 7 tries.

Kansas City used a timely hit from Manny Estrada to get the win. The first baseman stroked a 2-run double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Royals ahead, 6-5. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"We take it day by day here," said Estrada, "and today was a good one for us."

The losses continue to mount for Minnesota, which has now dropped 6 in a row.
