Royals Nudge Past Athletics, 4-3
The Oakland Athletics could not turn a fine performance from pitcher Chief Bender into a win. Instead, the Kansas City Royals prevailed, 4-3. Bender threw 8.1 innings allowing 3 runs. Their 18-21 record puts the Royals third in the American League Central Division.

The defining moment came in the bottom of the ninth for Kansas City. That's when Jermaine Dye hit a run-scoring double off 24-year old right-handed pitcher Andrew Bailey to win the game. The home crowd went wild.

"The crowd went nuts," Dye said.
