Royals Top Houston, 6-5
Houston got a big-time effort from pitcher Brian Lynch, but it wasn't enough to keep the Kansas City Royals from winning the game, 6-5. Lynch threw 7.2 innings of 5-hit ball for the losing team. Kansas City has 3 straight wins, Houston 3 straight losses.

Kansas City relied on the bat of Mike Jaquez to get the win. The second baseman ripped a bases-clearing double in the top of the ninth inning to put the Royals ahead, 6-5. For the game, Jaquez had 1 double and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.

"Nice to tuck this win away," said Jaquez.
