Kansas City Wins, Garduno goes 4-for-4
Benefiting from Oliverios Garduno's productive game, the Kansas City Athletics downed the Chicago Phantoms, 7-5. Garduno went 4-4 with a home run, 3 singles, and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 2 for the Athletics. Kohsuke Yoshimoto picked up the win in relief. His record improves to 3-0. John Colon suffered the loss. Kansas City, at 17-19, holds down third place in the Western Conference Brian Boots Division.

Kansas City used the timely hitting of Hisatoshi Morita to seize the win. The right fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Athletics on top, 6-5. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"My job is to go out and play as hard as I can for the Athletics," said Morita.
