Royals Roll to 8-3 Win Over Cubs
Kansas City starter Ryan Vogelsong had a strong outing against the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field. The right-hander was a big part of his team's 8-3 win. Kansas City is now 53-78, Chicago 81-50.

Kansas City relied on the hitting of Dave Nelson to pick up the win. The third baseman ripped a run-scoring single in the top of the fifth inning to put the Royals on top, 1-0. For the game, Nelson had 1 triple and 2 singles in 5 at-bats.

"We put it together today and came out with the win," Vogelsong said in postgame remarks. "That's the main thing."
