Royals 3, A's 1
Truck now 7-0 after tough battle
It was certainly not easy, but Truck led the Royals to a 3-1 win and a split with the A's. Truck (7-0) aggravated a quad pull but still managed to strike out 10 and walk one, allowing a mammoth homer to Mathis in the last of the third. The A's managed 5 hits off Truck. The Pirate (5-3) also pitched in pain, allowing six hits, zero walks (no surprise there) and struck out three. Truck homered for the Royals, while Mikey and Dave had two hits each.
