Royals Win, 9-2, Extend Streak to 4 Games
Getting an impressive start from Scott Bowling, Kansas City beat Houston by the score of 9-2. The winner was Bowling. He threw 7.2 innings of 6-hit ball. The loser was Kihachi Okuhara. The current losing streak for Houston has reached 5 games.

Kansas City used a well-timed hit by Antonio Alvarez to capture the win. The third baseman socked a run-scoring double in the top of the first inning to put the Royals ahead, 1-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"We're not exactly playing great right now," said Zeb Currier, the Houston manager.
