Multi-HR Game for Gonzalez in 8-5 Win
|
The Chicago Cubs downed the Kansas City Royals, 8-5, at Wrigley Field. Luis Gonzalez led the way, going 2-for-4 for Chicago. Eric King got the win, improving to 2-0. He pitched 5.1 innings, giving up 6 hits and 4 runs, while striking out 4 and walking 3. The Royals fall to 5-7 and continue their uneasy start to the 1994 season.
One important at-bat came with the bases loaded in the bottom of the fourth inning. Facing Kansas City hurler Mark Guthrie, Bob Brower drew a walk, driving in 1 run. The Cubs went on to win.
Gonzalez said his wife shared good advice with him before the game. "She said, 'Don't allow this game to make you mad.' When I thought about it, I realized this is just a game. I was able to relax at the plate."
