Mets Topple Royals, 5-3, as Hestermann Shines
The New York Mets downed the Kansas City Royals, 5-3, at Citi Field. The Mets were led by Jeff Hestermann. He went 4 for 4 with a home run and 2 doubles, while scoring 2 times and driving in 3. Andy Anderson recorded the save for New York, his 2nd of the season. After losing, Kansas City is 1-9.

With New York leading 3-2 in the bottom of the third, Hestermann hit a fastball from Jim Connell for a run-scoring double. It was his 4th double of the season and put the Mets ahead, 4-2.

"Obviously," said Kansas City manager Connor Gould, "we're in a tailspin right now."
