Artie Grant pitched a gem to lead Kansas City to victory over the Tampa Bay Rays, 5-1. Scotty Hale earned the save for Kansas City, his 16th of the year.

Jody King, who finished 2nd in the AL in extra base hits with 72 last year, contributed to the Kansas City win with a 3-run home run in the bottom of the fifth. For the game, the third baseman had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 3 runs batted in.

King said his team "played with focus."

Kansas City has now won 3 straight, while the Rays have lost 3 in a row.
