Twins Lose to Royals, 7-3
Kansas City Royals starter Jake Junis pitched a strong game against the Minnesota Twins at Kauffman Stadium, leading the Royals to a 7-3 win. Kansas City bumps their record to 36-38 with the win.

Jesse Winker had a big run-scoring single for the Royals in the bottom of the sixth inning. With Kansas City leading 4-3 and the bases loaded, he got a changeup from Trey Wingenter and stroked the single to right-center. It was his 86th hit of the season, and more importantly, it put the Royals ahead, 5-3.

"We cashed in when we had the chance," said Kansas City manager Bryce Shuck.
