Blue Jays Drop Royals, 7-5
Toronto starter James Tate pitched well against the Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium. The right-hander led his team to a win, 7-5. Tate, the winner, moves to 3-1. He threw 5 innings of 2-hit ball, while fanning 3 and giving up 2 walks. The Blue Jays, now 17-7, have been sizzling early on.

Toronto took a 7-3 lead on Austin Hendrick's 5th double of the season. The 2-run double, which Hendrick hit in the top of the ninth, left Kansas City pitcher Matt Diemer visibly frustrated.

"We'll savor this win," Hendrick told the Toronto Daily, "then get ready for the next game."
