The Kansas City Royals used three runs in the first couple of innings to beat the Los Angeles Angels 3-2 on Wednesday night. Gil Meche pitched an outstanging ballgame for the Royals who improved their record to 9-6 on the season with the win.
Meche picked up his first win of the season after pitching six inning and giving up six hits and two earned runs. Meche said he finally put away batters unlike his last few starts. Joakim Soria picked up his fifth save after closing the door on the Angels in the ninth.
Billy Butler and Alex Gordon had one RBI each for the Royals. Nice to see the two young stars contributing and putting runs up on the scoreboard.
