Royals Win at Chicago, 10-4
Spirited fans at Wrigley Field greeted the Chicago Cubs for their clash with the Kansas City Royals.

Kansas City starter Kevin Brown had a strong outing against the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field. The right-hander was a big part of his team's 10-4 win. Brown got the win, improving to 3-1. He allowed 6 hits and walked 1 over 7.1 innings. Brown allowed 4 earned runs.

With runs few and far between, the Royals had to seize their opportunities when they came. One of the most important chances for Kansas City came in the top of the fifth inning, when center fielder Ray Lankford delivered a run-scoring triple. The triple was hit off Jeff D. Robinson and made the score 4-2, Royals. Lankford went 1 for 6 with a triple.

"I had pretty good command out there," said Brown.

At 16-9, the Royals have played well so far.
