Kevin Tapani Goes Distance in Win
The Kansas City Royals got a stellar performance from pitcher Kevin Tapani, who handcuffed the Texas offense en route to a 6-1 win at Arlington Stadium. Kansas City now has a 5-game win streak.

Tapani, who was born in Des Moines, Iowa, threw 131 pitches over 9 innings, while allowing 1 earned run.

"We're in a marathon, not a sprint," said Tapani. "But I like how we're playing right now."
