Thome Hits 2 home runs in Royals Win
Jim Thome was instrumental in his team's 9-2 triumph over the Chicago Cubs. The designated hitter was 2-3 with 2 home runs and 2 walks, while scoring 3 times and driving in 3 for the Kansas City Royals. Kansas City has run its win streak to 4 in a row.

It could have been a different outcome for Kansas City, had it not been for Orlando Merced, the former first round draft pick . Merced contributed a run-scoring walk in the top of the eighth inning to put Kansas City up, 4-2.

"Nice to put this one in the win column," said Merced.
