Royals Prevail, 7-5, Over St. Louis
St. Louis second baseman Antoine Roux had a terrific game, but it still wasn't enough to get his team a win. Roux went 2-4 with 2 home runs, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice, even as Kansas City beat the Cardinals, 7-5. Bryan Boykin, the winner, improved to 6-5. He held the Cardinals to 4 runs on 5 hits over 6.2 innings, while striking out 7 and walking 1. The second-place Cardinals have lost 4 straight games.

Matt Belgard, the 23-year old second baseman , had a direct impact on the outcome. Belgard contributed a 2-run home run in the top of the third inning to put Kansas City up, 2-0.

"We'll take some time to unwind," said Belgard, "and then get after it again."
