The Cleveland (AZL) Guardians besoiled an otherwise fine performance by Kansas City (AZL) center fielder Rafael Avila by beating the Royals, 5-4, at Indians Developmental Complex. Avila was 2-3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 times. Phil Gorski nailed down his 2nd save. At 12-9, the Guardians claim first place in the Central Division.

The Guardians got a big hit from third baseman Jose Diaz. In the bottom of the sixth, Diaz smacked a 2-run double off Kansas City (AZL) pitcher Harry Evans. It was his 7th double of the season. Suddenly, the Guardians were ahead, 5-4.

"Nice to tuck this win away," said Diaz.
