Royals Come Back Late to Clip Cardinals
The Kansas City Royals stopped the St. Louis Cardinals, 8-5, behind an impressive performance from Roberto Alomar. The three-time All-Star made life miserable for St. Louis pitching. He was 2 for 3 with a double and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Steve Howe picked up the win in relief, improving his record to 1-0. Greg McMichael was tagged with the loss. Mike Schooler earned the save, his 1st, for the Royals.

There were several reasons the Royals beat the Cardinals, but one factor was John Olerud. In the bottom of the eighth, the Kansas City first baseman came to bat and hit a bases-clearing double. It staked his team to a 8-5 lead.

"It's always a heck of a lot easier to get to sleep after a win," Olerud told the Kansas City Chronicle. "I know I'll rest easy tonight."

Kansas City is now 17-8.
