Clutch Hitting Delivers Win for Royals
Kansas City Royals starter Cal Griffin pitched a strong game against the Los Angeles (A) Angels at Kauffman Stadium, leading the Royals to victory, 5-3. Kansas City reliever Chris Jordan picked up the win, raising his record to 2-1. Luis Navarro was tagged with the loss. Kansas City now sits in third place in the American League Central Division at 23-23.

Joe Jacobson was the walk-off hero for Kansas City. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Royals right fielder hit a dramatic 2-run home run to send the teams home.

"I'm not out there for personal accomplishments," Jacobson told a Kansas City Daily News reporter after the game. "I'm out there to help the team win, and that's what we did today."
