Twins Solve Royals, 5-4
|
Kauffman Stadium was the site of a competitive game between the Kansas City Royals and Minnesota Twins.
With second baseman José Jiménez leading the charge, the Minnesota Twins defeated the Kansas City Royals, 5-4, at Kauffman Stadium. Jiménez, who is tied for 10th in the AL in hits with 118, went 3 for 5 with 2 doubles. Dorian Collins got credit for the win, improving to 8-4. He allowed 4 runs on 7 hits in 5.2 innings.
Minnesota used a well-timed hit by Raúl Fernández to capture the win. The shortstop socked a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the Twins ahead, 3-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.
"I just tried to make good contact," said Fernández.
The current losing streak for Kansas City has reached 4 games.
