Royals Suffer 6-3 Home Defeat
Tigers first baseman Jim Thome left his imprint on his team's 6-3 win over the Kansas City Royals. Thome was 1-3 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 3 runs and drove in 2 for Detroit in the contest. The win puts the Tigers at 104-57, while the Royals drop to 85-76.

Detroit third baseman Aramis Ramirez contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the fifth. With two down, he hit a curveball to center field for a run-scoring single. It was his 44th hit of the season and put the Tigers ahead, 4-3.

"Anytime you're seeing it well, it's a good feeling," Thome told the Detroit Herald.
