Kansas City Gets 6-4 Win Against Tigers
The 6-4 Kansas City win over Detroit was due largely to Raul Mondesi. The Royals second baseman went 3-3 with 3 singles and a walk, while scoring 2 runs. The winning pitcher was Pedro Fernandez. He tossed 86 pitches over 6 innings, allowing 4 runs on 7 hits. The victory gives Kansas City a record of 29-29.

The Royals got a big at-bat from catcher Wilfredo Rodriguez. For the game, Rodriguez was 3 for 4 with a double and 2 singles. In the bottom of the sixth, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a run-scoring double. His 4th double of the season gave Kansas City a 5-4 lead.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Rodriguez. "And not try to do too much."
