Kansas City Beats Oakland, 3-1
Kansas City Royals starter Ed Bunney was in a rhythm all game. He led his team to a win over the Oakland Athletics, 3-1. Tim Foster closed the door for Kansas City, picking up his 6th save of the year. Kansas City is now 75-57, Oakland 69-63.

Kansas City relied on the bat of Jerry Hodge to get the win. The center fielder ripped a solo home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Royals ahead, 2-1. For the game, Hodge had 1 double and 1 home run in 3 at-bats.

"It's a mindset," said Bunney. "Just trying to do your job, trying to be consistent."
