The Kansas City (AZL) Royals had no problem beating the San Francisco (AZL) Giants, 11-3, at Scottsdale Stadium. Evan Starzynski led the onslaught. He went 2-5 with a home run, while scoring 2 and driving in 4 for Kansas City (AZL). With the win, the Royals have a record of 31-24.

Kansas City (AZL) used the timely hitting of Zeke McBean to seize the win. The third baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Royals on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

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