Kansas City Rallies to 3-2 Win
Both offenses were relatively subdued at Kauffman Stadium. Fortunately for the Kansas City Royals, though, Alex Baeza was able to deliver in the clutch. He went 2-3 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once, to lead his team past the Detroit Tigers, 3-2. The third-place Tigers now sit at 34-34.

The decisive blow was delivered in the bottom of the ninth when Scott Griffith hit a run-scoring double off fireballing right-hander Edgar Gines to win the game for Kansas City. The home crowd went wild.

"Exhilarating win," said Griffith.
