Texas Beaten, 6-4, by Kansas City
The Royals grabbed a win, 6-4, at Kauffman Stadium, overcoming a fine effort from Texas pitcher Tim Hurst. Hurst went 6.1 innings and allowed 3 runs. Edward Escoboza, credited with the save, is now 5 for 9 in save opportunities. Kansas City sits in 4th place in the American League Central Division at 30-37.

The game was at a stalemate until center fielder Ramão La Arena came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Texas pitcher Chris Wynn, he hit a 0-1 changeup for a 2-run single. It was a game-changer, putting Kansas City on top, 6-4.

"In baseball, you have your ups and downs," said Texas manager Eric Wedge. "You just try to stay level-headed the whole time."
