Gass Homers Twice in 5-0 Win
Riding the 3-hit performance of the 26-year old catcher Steve Gass, the Kansas City Royals stopped the St. Louis Cardinals, 5-0. Jose Arias nailed down his 2nd save. Kansas City has run its win streak to 4 in a row.

Gass had a game-changing home run in the top of the seventh. On a first pitch knuckle curve from Ray Holmes, he banged a 2-run home run to center, giving the Royals a 2-0 lead. It was the 6th home run of the year for Gass.

"If the personal accolades come, so be it," said Gass. "I just want to win ballgames."
