Kansas City Royals starter Pedro Fernandez was in a groove as he led his team to a win over the Detroit Tigers, 5-2. Fernandez, the winner, moves to 6-6. He threw 5.1 innings of 4-hit ball, while fanning 4 and giving up no walks. The winning streak has now reached 5 games for Kansas City.

Kansas City catcher Wilfredo Rodriguez contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the second. With two down, he hit a fastball into center field for a run-scoring single. It was his 46th hit of the season and put the Royals ahead, 1-0.

"I like seeing our guys get a return on what they've put in," said Kansas City manager Matt Erickson.
