					| Royals Drop 4-1 Decision to Tigers |  
					| Detroit starter Ryan Sobocinski put a stranglehold on the Kansas City offense. The right-hander had complete command of his fastball in leading the Tigers to a 4-1 win. Sobocinski got the win, improving to 14-3. He allowed 3 hits and walked 0 over 7 innings. Sobocinski allowed 1 run. Detroit has now won 4 straight, while the Royals have lost 5 in a row. 
 In the bottom of the third, Detroit third baseman Ryan Neal had a productive at-bat. With  a runner on 2nd and two out, Neal stroked a run-scoring  single to center. It made the score 2-1, Detroit. For the game, he went 1-4, while adding 2 RBI.
 
 "We're stringing together some nice wins," said Detroit manager Colin Lancey.
