Royals Get Past Baltimore for 4-3 Win
Kansas City Royals starter Chris Irvin pitched a strong game against the Baltimore Orioles at Kauffman Stadium, leading the Royals to victory, 4-3. Kansas City reliever David Silva was the winner. His record is now 5-5. The losing pitcher was Alan Taylor. The third-place Royals are 50-51.

Had Jose Pacheco not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 2nd, Pacheco hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 4-3, in favor of the Royals.

"We put together a nice win," Pacheco said.
