The Tampa Bay Rays defeated the Kansas City Royals, 8-6, in American League action at Kauffman Stadium. John Henry Lloyd pulled his weight. The 10-year veteran went 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 3 times. Tampa Bay pitcher Scott Kazmir got the win, upping his record to 2-5. Kevin Appier got the loss. Tampa Bay has a record of 34-43, placing them last in the American League Eastern Division.

Tampa Bay used a big swing from Dioner Navarro to get the win. The catcher walloped a 2-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Rays up, 3-1. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it changed the outcome.

"We just try to have good at-bats, whether we're winning, losing, or tied," said Navarro.
