The Vancouver Canadians handed the Kansas City (SS-A) Royals a sound defeat, 11-1, at Melaleuca Field. Tanner Gillespie was a main contributor to the win. He went 2 for 5 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 3 for Vancouver. Matt Creasy, summoned from the bullpen, notched his 1st save. Vancouver, at 30-32, sits in third place in the West Division.

Vancouver used the hitting of Mike Posik to pick up the win. The first baseman clubbed a 3-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Canadians on top, 4-0. For the game, Posik had 1 home run and 1 single in 3 at-bats.

"We can't expect to win," said Kansas City (SS-A) manager Matt Sorenson, "when we play like that."
