The Kansas City Royals beat the Minnesota Twins, 13-2, at Royals Stadium. John Olerud was recognized as player of the game for his performance. He went 3 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 3 times and drove in 5. The three-time Gold Glove winner was a menace to Minnesota all day. Bobby J. Jones got the win, improving to 1-0. He worked 9 innings, giving up 2 runs on 12 hits, while striking out 5 and walking 3. Kansas City has now won 4 straight.

Orlando Merced contributed a productive at-bat in the bottom of the fourth. With the bases loaded, he drew a walk, driving in 1 run. It was one at-bat that propelled Kansas City to the win.

"You can't sugarcoat this one," said Minnesota manager Darren Fischbach. "We got flat-out beat."
