Royals Clip Rangers, 6-5
The Kansas City Royals, with some walk-off drama, delighted their fans at Kauffman Stadium.

Thanks in large part to designated hitter George Brett, the Kansas City Royals clipped the Texas Rangers, 6-5, in 10 innings. Brett slugged 2 home runs, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 3. The first-place Royals improved to 73-64.

The Royals procured the win, in large part because of pinch hitter Darrell Porter. In the bottom of the tenth, he produced the game-winning run-scoring single.

Texas manager said: "No matter what the wins or losses say, there are a bunch of guys in the clubhouse who don't really care. We know we haven't played well this season but we're not going to give up."
