Yankees Win at Kansas City, 3-0
The Bronx Yankees topped the Kansas City Royals, 3-0, in American League action at Kauffman Stadium. The player of the game was Bronx pitcher and The United States native Jim Hickey. The winning pitcher was Hickey, now 6-6. He tossed 8 innings of 5-hit ball, while walking 1 and fanning 2. Bronx is now 39-36, 2½ games up in the American League Down.

It could have been a different outcome for Bronx, had it not been for Reggie Smith, the three-time Golden Glove Award winner . Smith contributed a solo home run in the top of the fifth inning to put Bronx up, 2-0.

"Baseball is about momentum," said Hickey, "and we feel we've got it in our favor after that win."
