On Road, Toronto Beats Kansas City, 9-3
The Toronto Blue Jays bested the Kansas City Royals by a score of 9-3, with left fielder Vernon Wells getting the main credit. On the day, Wells was 2 for 4 with a home run. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Blue Jays. Woody Williams got the win, improving to 6-14. He held the Royals to 3 runs on 4 hits over 6.2 innings, while striking out 3 and walking 5. The Blue Jays have a winning streak of 5 games.

Edgardo Alfonzo was 1 for 4 with a double for Toronto. The 25-year old third baseman had a key at-bat in the top of the third. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 1-1 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Steve Avery. It was his 88th RBI of the season.

Alfonzo told a Toronto Chronicle reporter that he was "gratified" with the win.
