Royals 7-4 Winners Versus Chicago
The Chicago White Sox could not turn a fine performance from pitcher Raul Ornelas into a win. Instead, the Kansas City Royals prevailed, 7-4. Ornelas threw 5.0 innings of 3-hit ball. Bobby Day, now 3-6, picked up the win in relief. He allowed no runs on 1 hit in 3 innings. Kansas City is now 79-77.

Steve Gass had a big 2-run home run for the Royals in the top of the fourth inning. With Kansas City leading 2-1 and a runner on 1st, he sized up a fastball from 27-year old left-handed pitcher Raul Ornelas and punished it. The result was his 8th home run of the season, which put the Royals on top, 4-1.

Gass told the media after that game that the mood in the clubhouse is "extremely positive" after a win like that.
