Smith, Brewers Too Much for Royals
Behind a fine performance from Jim Smith, the Milwaukee Brewers knocked off the Kansas City Royals, 11-9. Smith was 3 for 5 with a home run and a double, while scoring 3 and driving in 3 for the Brewers. The loss lowers the Kansas City record to 1-5.

The Royals had been locked in a 7-7 tie with the Brewers going into the bottom of the eighth inning. That changed quickly when the 30-year old left fielder Tim Nolan came to the plate. Nolan hit a run-scoring double on a first pitch fastball from Kansas City hurler Juan Oramas. It was Nolan's 4th double of the year.

"We ground out the win," said Nolan. "That's all that matters."
