Benefiting from Orlando Merced's productive game, the Kansas City Royals downed the New York Yankees, 6-4. Merced was 2-4 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2 for the Royals. New York has now lost 4 straight.

Merced contributed a productive at-bat in the top of the sixth. With the bases loaded, he drew a walk, driving in 1 run. It was one at-bat among others that helped Kansas City get the win.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Merced. "And not try to do too much."
