Jaquez Slugs Royals to 6-5 Win
|
The 6-5 Kansas City win over Oakland was due largely to Mike Jaquez. The Royals second baseman belted 2 home runs. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice. Jimmy Silveira IV, the winner, improved to 7-9. He held the Athletics to no runs on 2 hits over 6 innings, while striking out 5 and walking 5. Kansas City is now 59-56.
Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Mike Meyerhoff? The Kansas City catcher had a run-scoring single in the top of the fifth inning to put the Royals on top, 2-0. For the game, Meyerhoff had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.
"I just tried to see the ball and put a good swing on it," said Meyerhoff.
