Mariners Foil Royals, 8-6
The inspired effort of Kansas City designated hitter Howie Kendrick was not enough to prevent a loss, 8-6, to the Seattle Mariners. Kendrick went 3 for 5 with 2 doubles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. The winner was Tony Watson in relief. His record improves to 1-1. JoJo Romero took the loss. Seattle has run its win streak to 6 in a row.

Elvis Andrus contributed a productive at-bat in the bottom of the seventh. With a runner on 1st, he hit a double. It was one at-bat that helped Seattle get the win.

"Good pitching stops good hitting," said Andrus. "And vice-versa."
