Twins Losing Streak at 5 After Extra-Inning Loss to Royals
The Kansas City Royals and Minnesota Twins put on quite a show at Metrodome.

The Royals had to overcome a fine performance from Minnesota pitcher Pedro Astacio to grab a 6-4 win at Metrodome. Astacio allowed 2 earned runs over 7 innings. Kansas City improves to 92-24 with the win. They lead their division by 27 games.

The game was at a stalemate until catcher Rick Wilkins came to bat in the top of the 11th. Facing Minnesota pitcher Rob Dibble, he hit a 0-1 fastball for a 2-run home run. It was a game-changer, putting Kansas City on top, 6-4.

"The vibe's good," said Kansas City manager Daniel Drucker. "We've got to keep it going."
