Late Rally Earns Kansas City (AZL) 5-3 Win
The San Francisco (AZL) Giants got a superb performance from pitcher Rafael Garibay, but the Kansas City (AZL) Royals still won the game, 5-3. Garibay threw 6.0 innings allowing 2 runs. The win was credited to Danny Mata in relief. His record improves to 2-0. Dustin Kirby took the loss. The Royals raised their record to 8-3.

Kansas City (AZL) used a timely hit from Jon Santana to get the win. The designated hitter stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Royals ahead, 4-3. It was his only hit in 2 at-bats, but it was a difference-maker.

"I'm trying to keep it simple," said Santana. "Just do my job."
