Royals Beat Astros, 6-5
In a tight contest at Minute Maid Park, the Kansas City Royals edged the Houston Astros by the score of 6-5. Kansas City right fielder Joe Jacobson, who blasted 1 home run, was a key contributor. The winner was Augusto Medina, who threw 92 pitches over 5.2 innings. The right-hander was charged with 3 runs on 7 hits. The save went to Ron Davis, number 2 for him.

Kansas City used the bat of Chad Morgan to capture the win. The designated hitter jacked a 2-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Royals ahead, 2-1. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a dandy.

"We were able to get some things going offensively," said Morgan.

The victory makes Kansas City 3-4.
