Kansas City (SS-A) Falters Again, Loses, 7-4, to Minnesota (SS-A)
The inspired effort of Kansas City (SS-A) first baseman Chad Taylor was not enough to prevent a loss, 7-4, to the Minnesota (SS-A) Twins. Taylor was 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 2 times. The win was credited to 22-year old right-handed pitcher Franky Koornstra in relief. His record improves to 1-1. Juan Rivera took the loss. The win puts the Twins at 27-27, while the Royals drop to 20-34.

Phil Keats chipped in for Minnesota (SS-A), stroking a crucial 2-run triple in the bottom of the seventh inning. For the game, the center fielder went 1-4 with a triple and was hit by a pitch. He drove in 2 runs and scored once.

"In this profession, you've got to put the good and the bad behind you quickly," Kansas City (SS-A) skipper Matt Sorenson said.
