The Kansas City Royals defeated the Philadelphia Phillies, 8-4, at Veterans Stadium. Kansas City was led by 25-year old shortstop Hector Luna, who was 3 for 4 with a home run, a triple, and a double, while scoring 3 times and driving in 3. With their winning streak at 5, the Royals have raced to a strong start this season.

Early in the game, Luna had a run-scoring double for Kansas City. It was his 7th double of the season and put the Royals on top, 1-0.

"There's so many different ways you can win a game," said winning manager Aaron Briskman.
