Royals Beat Brewers, 5-4
Kansas City picked up a win at County Stadium, bumping off the Milwaukee Brewers, 5-4. Pitcher Shawn Box was a major reason the Royals emerged victorious. Box, now 6-4, was the winner. In 8 innings, he gave up 7 hits, while striking out 1, walking 0, and allowing 4 runs. Mike Brady closed the door for Kansas City, picking up his 2nd save of the year.

In the top of the first, Willis Otanez pounced on a fastball from Rocky Elli and hit a 2-run single. It gave Kansas City a quick 2-0 lead.

"It takes a lot of things to win a ballgame," said Kansas City manager Dan Thompson. "It's usually not just one thing."

The Royals own a robust 39-20 mark.
