The Oakland Athletics got a superb performance from pitcher Franklin Rojas, but the Kansas City Royals still won the game, 5-4. Rojas threw 7.1 innings of 4-hit ball. Kansas City goes to 6-9.

The Royals were down to their last out in the bottom of the ninth when right fielder Gil Switzer turned a first pitch fastball from Kyle Ehret into a 2-run single. The walk-off single electrified the Kauffman Stadium denizens and sent the Royals home with a thrilling 5-4 win.

"I'm just happy to help the team win," Switzer told the Kansas City Chronicle.
