Spiders Sneak Past Royals, 5-4
Cleveland Spiders starter Masaki Saito pitched effectively against the Kansas City Royals at Royals Stadium. The right-hander spearheaded his team's 5-4 win. In 9 innings, Saito surrendered 9 hits, while striking out 10 and walking 3. He allowed 4 runs. The 4th-place Spiders have won 4 in a row.

Cleveland used the bat of Mickey Morandini to get the win. The second baseman hammered a solo home run in the top of the tenth inning to put the Spiders ahead, 5-4. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"Baseball is about momentum," said Saito, "and we feel we've got it in our favor after that win."
