Kansas City got a big-time effort from pitcher Mark Ashford, but it wasn't enough to keep the New York Yankees from winning the game, 1-0. Ashford threw 8.1 innings of 6-hit ball for the losing team. The win has New York at 56-88.

Jeff Benhart had a direct impact on the outcome. Benhart contributed a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the eighth inning to put New York up, 1-0.

"Scoring was at a premium tonight," Benhart said.
