Royals Get Win, Extend Streak to 12
The Kansas City Royals stopped the New York Yankees, 13-3, behind an impressive performance from David Justice. The 1989 Rookie of the Year winner made life miserable for New York pitching. He was 3 for 5 with a double and 2 singles, while scoring 2 times and driving in 3. Kevin Brown got the win, improving to 11-1. He worked 9 innings, giving up 3 runs on 9 hits, while striking out 6 and walking 2. The last-place Yankees have dropped 5 straight games.

With Kansas City leading 3-0 in the top of the first, Danny Tartabull hit a 3-run home run off New York pitcher Mark Clark. It put the Royals ahead 6-0.

"As well as we've been playing, I think we can play even better," said Kansas City manager Daniel Drucker.
