Royals Score Late, Top Astros, 7-2
The Houston Astros got a superb performance from pitcher Shane Walker. Still, it wasn't enough to beat Kansas City. The Royals won the game, 7-2. Walker threw 7.2 innings of 6-hit ball. Tom Jensen earned the win after being called from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on 3 hits in 2.1 innings. He upped his record to 4-1. Kansas City occupies third place in the American League Central Division at 24-25.

Kansas City used the timely hitting of Imbart Faber to capture the win. The second baseman socked a 2-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Royals ahead, 3-2. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a big one.

Faber called the win "a collective effort."
