					| Royals Sneak Past Guardians, 4-3 |  
					| The inspired effort of Cleveland designated hitter Nick Ogle was not enough to prevent a loss, 4-3, to the Kansas City Royals. Ogle went 2-4 with a home run and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Kansas City raised its record to 68-54 with the win. 
 Gil Switzer was the walk-off hero for Kansas City. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Royals left fielder hit a dramatic solo  home run to send the teams home.
 
 "We did enough to win," said Switzer.
