The Kansas City Royals got a strong performance from pitcher Matt Evans, who stymied the Minnesota offense en route to a win, 7-2, at Kauffman Stadium. Evans picked up the win for Kansas City, going 6.2 innings. He gave up 1 run on 7 hits. He now sports a record of 11-6. The Twins, now 39-121, have lost 4 straight.
Tony Prado, who finished 3rd in the AL in on-base percentage with .449 in 2039, helped out the Kansas City cause in the bottom of the fourth inning with a run-scoring walk. For the game, the center fielder went 2-4 with a triple and a walk.
In postgame comments to the Kansas City Citizen, Evans said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
