7-3 Win Gets Kansas City to 52-43
The Kansas City Royals knocked off the Chicago White Sox, 7-3, at Kauffman Stadium. Jesús Castro was a big reason Kansas City won. The left fielder was 3 for 4 with a home run and a double, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. The winner in relief was Jefferson Vergara. The right-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 1.2 innings. He now owns a record of 3-3. The first-place Royals raised their record to 52-43.

Kansas City took a 6-3 lead on Joe Washington's 14th home run of the season. The 3-run home run came off Chicago pitcher Luis Chavarría in the bottom of the seventh.

Washington told a Kansas City Observer reporter that he was "gratified" with the win.
