Royals Beat Tigers, 6-5
The Kansas City Royals beat the Detroit Tigers, 6-5, in part because of shortstop Tyler Donaldson. He went 1 for 3 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Addison Reed earned save number 9 this season. Kansas City goes to 16-12.

Kansas City grabbed the momentum in the top of the fifth, when Donaldson, who is tied for 5th in the AL in RBI with 20, hit a 3-run home run. His 2nd home run of the season put the Royals out in front, 6-5.

"You know, at the end of the day, it's about who scores the most runs," said Kansas City manager David Eckstein.
