The Kansas City Royals won their fourth straight game as they beat the Detroit Tigers 8-4 and swept the Tigers in the three game series.  It is great to watch the Royals play such great baseball as they have won the last four games.

Gil Meche improved to 3-5 on the season as he picked up the win.  Meche pitched seven innings and have up six hits and three runs.  Joel Peralta pitched one inning and gave up one run while Ramon Ramirez pitched one inning and did not allow a run.

Jose Guillen led the Royals at the plate as he went 3-5 with three rbi and a solo home run.  Billy Butler wasn’t too far behind has he had two rbi.  Joey Gathright, Miguel Olivo, and Mark Teahen all had one rbi in the game.

Let’s see if the Royals can keep things up as they begin a interleague series with the Florida Marlins on Friday.
