White Sox Sneak Past Royals, 3-2
The Chicago White Sox and Kansas City Royals played an exciting game.

The Chicago White Sox took Kansas City pitcher Pedro Fernandez's best shot and still were able to claim a win at Kauffman Stadium. The final score had Chicago getting past the Royals, 3-2. Fernandez went 6 innings and allowed 1 run, striking out 3. Mike Kelly picked up the win, improving his season record to 7-6. He struck out 5 in 8 innings.

Chicago used the timely hitting of Steve Peters to seize the win. The designated hitter stroked a 2-run single in the top of the eighth inning to put the White Sox on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

Afterward, White Sox manager Gary Cathcart was ebullient. "That was a fun game to coach," he told a group of reporters, adding, "I hope it was just as fun to watch."

The loss makes Kansas City 52-45.
