Lópes Lifts Royals to 6-4 Triumph
The 6-4 Kansas City win over Arizona was due in large part to Greg Lópes. The Royals first baseman was 3-4 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 3 runs and drove in 3. Kansas City pitcher Gabriel Llanes earned the win, hiking his record to 3-0. Jon Cameron suffered the loss. Kansas City is now 63-82, Arizona 77-69.

Had Lópes not come through in the bottom of the seventh, who knows how the game would've ended? But with two down, Lópes hit a 2-run single. The Royals took the lead, 5-4, and never looked back.

"Our approach was just to try to see something over the plate and be aggressive," Lópes told the Kansas City Herald.
