Justice Helps Royals Run Win Streak to 8
David Justice left his imprint on the 11-4 Kansas City win against the Atlanta Braves. Justice, who is a two-time All-Star, went 2-4 with 2 home runs and a walk, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 3. Rick Reed, who went 8 innings, was the winning pitcher. He was charged with 4 runs on 8 hits, while walking 1 and striking out 9. His record now stands at 2-1. Kansas City, now 13-7, has played well in the early going.

John Olerud had a big bases-clearing double for the Royals in the top of the fourth inning. With Kansas City leading 4-1 and the bases loaded, he got a fastball from Marvin Freeman and stroked the double to left. It was his 4th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Royals ahead, 7-1.

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