Angels Rebuff Royals, 4-2
Starting pitcher Ben McDonald fulfilled his part of the bargain, helping the Anaheim Angels stymie the Kansas City Royals, 4-2. McDonald, now 13-9, was the winner. In 7 innings, he gave up 8 hits, while striking out 4, walking 2, and allowing 2 runs. The save went to Troy Percival, number 30 for him.

Anaheim used a clutch at-bat from Rod Barajas to capture the win. The catcher hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Angels ahead, 2-0. It was his lone hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Do what you're good at," said Anaheim manager Tom Thompson. "That's all I ask of the team."

The Angels, at 78-68, sit in first place in the AL West Division.
