Royals Take Nail-Biter Over Tigers
The home team gave their fans plenty to cheer about, with a thrilling walk-off win.

The Kansas City Royals defeated the Detroit Tigers in 12 innings, 9-7, in part because of center fielder Marc Newfield. Newfield was 2 for 4 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 2 times and drove in 2 for the Royals. The first-place Tigers now sit at 104-58.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the 12th. With one out, Newfield hit a sinker from Scott Downs for a 2-run home run. The Royals, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"This house was rockin'," Newfield said.
