Twins Lose to Royals, 6-3
Kansas City and Minnesota took Mother Nature's best shot and still managed to complete their ballgame.

The Kansas City Royals picked up a win at Kauffman Stadium, taking down the Minnesota Twins, 6-3. Starting pitcher Jimmy Silveira IV was a big reason why. Silveira IV went 8 innings to notch the win. He scattered 7 hits, walked 1, and struck out 8. His record improves to 3-0.

Tony Prado dealt the Twins a blow in the bottom of the fifth. Batting with the bases loaded and Kansas City leading 2-1, Prado, who finished 5th in the AL in runs with 131 in 2038, hit a first pitch fastball for a 2-run single.

"Good baseball players make you a smarter manager," said Kansas City manager Chris Stephan.

The Twins, now 5-12, continue their slow start.
