The Kansas City Royals were never really in the game against the Cleveland Indians on Tuesday night as they were hammered 15-1.  The Royals were only able to get six hits in the game, so there was no way they could keep up with the hot hitting Indians who put 15 runs up on the scoreboard.

Starting pitcher Gil Meche dropped his third game of the season as he only lasted 3.1 innings.  Meche gave up nine hits and eight earned runs.  Terrible outing for Meche who was hoping for a lot better preformance.

Joel Peralta, Yasuhiko Yabuta, Jimmy Gobble, and Ramon Ramirez all seen action out of the bullpen and all except for Ramirez gave up atleast two earned runs.  Gobble gave up three while only recording two outs.

Mark Teahen had the lone RBI for the Royals. Teahen singled in the eigth inning to score Tony Pena Jr.

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.
