The Kansas City Royals dealt the Baltimore Orioles a 14-8 loss at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. Joe Mauer was the star on offense. He was 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He drove in 5 runs and scored once. Kansas City starter Ivan Nova was credited with the win after throwing 93 pitches over 5 innings. His record now stands at 2-3. The last-place Orioles have lost 4 consecutive games.

Mauer had a big at-bat with a runner on 2nd in the top of the sixth inning, when he hit a run-scoring single. The Royals went on to win.

"I just try to see the ball and put a good swing on it," said Mauer.
