Rangers Stumble, Lose to Royals
The Kansas City Royals topped the Texas Rangers, 8-4, in Federal League action at Arlington Stadium. The player of the game was Kansas City pitcher and Huntington, West Virginia native Rick Reed. Kansas City is now 87-24, 23½ games up in the Federal League Central Division.

Roberto Alomar had a big 2-run single for the Royals in the top of the eighth inning. With Kansas City leading 4-3 and the bases loaded, he got a sinker from John Butcher and stroked the single to left. It was his 115th hit of the season, and more importantly, it put the Royals ahead, 6-3.

"We've got a great group of guys," Reed said, "and we're having fun right now."
