Royals Beaten By Reds, 7-1
The Cincinnati Reds rode a solid performance from 33-year-old starting pitcher Steven Matz to a win, beating the Kansas City Royals, 7-1, at Kauffman Stadium. In 8 innings, Matz surrendered 7 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 1. He allowed 1 run. The Reds now have a record of 23-31 with the win over Kansas City.

Cincinnati used the timely hitting of Diory Paulino to capture the win. The designated hitter stroked a bases-clearing double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Reds on top, 5-1. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but he made it count.

Paulino called the win "a lesson in teamwork."
