Royals Deal Cardinals 4-2 Defeat
Kansas City pitcher Bryan Boykin did his part in helping his team beat the St. Louis Cardinals, 4-2. The right-hander kept opposing batters in check throughout the game. The Royals go to 34-45, putting them third in the American League Central Division.

Kansas City used the timely hitting of Bob Najar to capture the win. The center fielder socked a 2-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Royals ahead, 2-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a big one.

"I just tried to make good contact," said Najar.
