Carlos Beltran did all he could to help his team win. In the end, though, it wasn't enough to keep the Kansas City Royals from being beaten, 10-6, to the Minnesota Twins at Kauffman Stadium. Beltran was 2-3 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2. The defeat makes Kansas City 62-97.

Harmon Killebrew, who is tied for 9th in the AL in RBI with 94, took Kansas City hurler Mark Gubicza deep in the top of the first. His grand slam home run put the Twins on top, 4-0. In all, Killebrew had 1 single in addition to the home run, while going 2 for 5.

"Good win for us," said Killebrew. "We'll strap it on and go after the next one."
