White Sox Lose to Royals, 8-6
The Kansas City Royals weathered an outstanding game by Chicago third baseman Ryan MacFarland to topple the White Sox, 8-6. MacFarland was 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3. Frank Viola was the winning pitcher. Over 6 innings, he allowed 3 runs on 9 hits, with 2 walks and 5 strikeouts. Orel Hershiser was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 10 of 18 save opportunities.

Gary Carter, who is tied for 6th in the AL with a .518 slugging percentage, contributed to the Kansas City win with a 3-run home run in the bottom of the fourth. For the game, the first baseman had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 3 runs batted in.

"You can't get too high when things go well, or too low when things go bad. Right now, I'm just happy we got the win," Carter told the Kansas City Observer.

The Royals move to 54-66 with the win, while the White Sox drop to 63-57.
