The exploits of center fielder Bob Najar, who was drafted in the 2nd round of the 2039 draft, helped the Kansas City Royals defeat the Detroit Tigers, 15-2. Najar went 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 3. The Royals saw their win-loss record go to 47-62. At the same time, the Tigers fell to 46-64.

Aaron Matthews, the two-time Great Glove Award winner , had a direct impact on the outcome. Matthews contributed a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the fifth inning to put Kansas City up, 2-1.

"I just tried to see the ball and put a good swing on it," said Najar.
