The home crowd had a good time watching the Minnesota Twins and Kansas City Royals get after it.

The Kansas City Royals defeated the Minnesota Twins, 10-1. Doing his part was center fielder Zhao-ji Chi, who was 3-3 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Jimmy Silveira IV, the winner, improved to 16-6. He held the Twins to 1 run on 2 hits over 7.1 innings, while striking out 6 and walking 3.

With Kansas City leading 3-1 in the bottom of the fourth, Chi hit a fastball from Felix Perez for a 2-run home run. It was his 6th home run of the season and put the Royals ahead, 5-1.

"Whenever we hold the other team to one run," said Royals manager Jordan Royals, "I like our chances."

The victory gives Kansas City a record of 87-52.
