Royals Use Late-Game Magic to Beat Athletics
The Kansas City Royals trumped the Oakland Athletics, 6-5, at Kauffman Stadium. Kansas City center fielder Raimel Tapia was named player of the game for his performance. He was 2 for 5 with a home run. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Kansas City reliever Carl Edwards Jr. picked up the win, upping his record to 2-2. Craig Kimbrel shouldered the loss. With the win, the Royals have a record of 26-32.

Tapia had a big at-bat with a runner on 1st in the bottom of the eighth inning, when he hit a single. The Royals went on to win.

"You can't get too high when things go well, or too low when things go bad. Right now, I'm just happy we got the win," Tapia told the Kansas City Today.
