Royals Throttled by Twins, 3-1
The Minnesota Twins topped the Kansas City Royals, 3-1, in American League action at Kauffman Stadium. The standout performance belonged to Minnesota pitcher and Ostermundingen, Switzerland, native Steffen Joseph. The loss drops the Royals to 8-7.

It could have been a different outcome for Minnesota, had it not been for Kevin Bellman, the 2038 Rookie of the Year Award winner . Bellman contributed a solo home run in the top of the second inning to put Minnesota up, 1-0.

"We'll pop the top on a cold beverage and get back to work tomorrow," Bellman said.
