A 4-RBI performance from Muneo Kawachi, who is tied for 10th in the AL in stolen bases with 39, helped the Oakland Athletics beat the Kansas City Royals, 7-2. Jeremy Fraraccio, credited with the save, is now 1 for 1 in save opportunities. The win has Oakland at 56-84.

In postgame comments to the Oakland Times, Kawachi said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
