Downing, Angels Too Much for Royals
The Los Angeles Angels defeated the Kansas City Royals, 3-0, in part because of catcher Brian Downing. Downing was 4-4 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles, while scoring 2 and driving in 2 for the Angels. Francisco Rodriguez recorded the save, making him 2 for 6. The Angels go to 29-51, putting them last in the American League Western Division.

In the top of the second, with the game still scoreless, Downing hit a run-scoring single to put his team in the lead.

"Winning is great," Downing said. "It's always just guys picking each other up -- if not me, then the next guy."
