Royals Get Win, Hope to Turn Around Slow Start
The Kansas City Royals got a strong performance from pitcher Lloyd Hittle, who stymied the Detroit offense en route to a 7-2 win at Kauffman Stadium. Kansas City is still hoping to get on a roll. The win is just their 1st in 6 games.

The Royals had to work out of trouble in the top of the seventh. The score was 5-2, Kansas City, with one out. Detroit, with runners on 1st and 2nd, was mounting a threat. Orlando Cepeda dug in at the plate, but on a 1-2 slider, he flied out.
