Twins Lose, 11-7, at Kauffman Stadium
The Kansas City Royals knocked off the Minnesota Twins, 11-7, at Kauffman Stadium. Jurickson Profar, who captured player of the game honors, was a big reason Kansas City won. The second baseman was 2 for 3 with 2 singles and 2 walks, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Reliever Gregory Infante picked up the win. His record improves to 1-0. Wandy Peralta took the loss. Kansas City now sits in second place in the American League Central Division at 85-75.

Nolan Arenado had a big run-scoring double for the Royals in the bottom of the third inning. With Kansas City leading 1-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a slider from Wandy Peralta and stroked the double to center. It was his 35th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Royals ahead, 2-0.

"Feels good to get the job done," Profar said after the game.
