Kansas City and New York duked it out at Yankee Stadium and the Royals came out victorious.
The Kansas City Royals downed the New York Yankees, 5-3, at Yankee Stadium. The Royals were led by Jim Thome, who captured player of the game honors. He was 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. Denny Neagle went 6 innings for Kansas City to pick up the win. The left-hander was charged with 3 earned runs. He scattered 6 hits, while walking 0 and striking out 5. His record improves to 19-5.
With Kansas City leading 2-1 in the top of the third, Thome hit a fastball from Mark Clark for a 3-run home run. It was his 47th home run of the season and put the Royals ahead, 5-1.
"Every win gets us closer to our ultimate goal," said Thome.
