KANSAS CITY -- The Royals edged the first place Twins, 9-8, in a game which saw 11 combined runs score in the 7th.
The Twins batted around in the 7th, scoring five runs on six hits. Seven consecutive batters reached. The Royals bullpen imploded yet again; Steve Mingori allowed all his inherited runs to score, and allowed two extra Twins to reach. Then Doug Bird, who's had an terrible season (13.39 ERA) three additional hits and a walk. It was looking grim for the Royals.
But surprise! The Royals had a 6-run 7th, capped off by Al Cowens bases-clearing double. A good game, folks. What a badass nigga Cowens has been this year.
