The Kansas City Royals defeated the Minnesota Twins, 6-5. Doing his part was catcher Luis Villanueva, who was 3-4 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. With the win, Kansas City upped its record to 71-56.

Kansas City used the clutch hitting of Mike Jaquez to capture the win. The second baseman drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to put the Royals ahead, 6-5. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a big one.

"Win or lose, we pick each other up in this clubhouse," Jaquez told the Kansas City Citizen.
