Justin Morneau blasted a homerun as the Minnesota Twins beat the Kansas City

Royals by a score of 4 to 0.

 

Minnesota tallied 2 runs in the bottom of the 3rd inning when they had 3 base

hits.  That early scoring held up.  Despite losing, Kansas City out-hit

Minnesota 12 to 8.  

 

The win was credited to Kevin Slowey(3-0) who went 8 and 1/3 innings allowing

no runs. Slowey got relief help from Joe Nathan who gained credit for his 6th

save.  Zack Greinke(1-3) took the loss.
