Kansas City Drops Another One, 7-5
Houston picked up a win at Kauffman Stadium, toppling the Kansas City Royals, 7-5. Pitcher Chris McGowan was one of the reasons the Astros triumphed. McGowan, now 9-12, was the winner. In 6.2 innings, he gave up 6 hits, while striking out 8, walking 1, and allowing 4 runs. Jorge Llaguno converted his 25th save in 28 tries.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Nate Larsen? The Houston third baseman had a 2-run double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Astros on top, 3-0. For the game, Larsen had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"It was a solid team effort," said McGowan after the game.

Kansas City's current losing streak has reached 7 games.
