Royals Win at Milwaukee, 7-1
Milwaukee had no answer for Kansas City Royals hurler Sheldon Burnside, who overwhelmed Brewers hitters as the Royals coasted to a 7-1 victory. In 5 innings, Burnside surrendered 4 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 1. He allowed 1 run. Matt Hensley converted his 10th save in 11 tries.

Kansas City used the timely hitting of Ty Cline to seize the win. The right fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the fifth inning to put the Royals on top, 2-1. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"We were able to get some things going offensively," said Cline.

Kansas City is now 56-89, while Milwaukee is 54-92.
