Royals Solve Creams, 5-3
The Kansas City Royals knocked off the Milwaukee Creams, 5-3, at Royals Stadium. Reggie L. Sanders, who captured player of the game honors, was a big reason Kansas City won. The left fielder slugged 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Kansas City leads the Federal League Central Division by 5½ games.

Sanders contributed a productive at-bat in the bottom of the third. With a runner on 1st, he hit a 2-run home run. It was one at-bat among others that helped Kansas City get the win.

"We take it day by day here," said Sanders, "and today was a good one for us."
