Carrying a three-hit shutout into the ninth, Escobar finally gave up a solo home run to Manny Ramirez as he finishes a one-run, four-hit complete game.

Then, the Royals broke out with a five-run second inning on three home runs. John Buck jacked a two-run shot, Felipe Lopez also hit a two-run blast, and he was followed by Mark Teahen with a solo shot to go back-to-back. The only run the Twins got was an RBI single by Chris Denorfia in the seventh.

July in Review

The Royals had another great month as this magical season continues for the 2010 Kansas City Royals. They went 15-10 in the month of July, and are now tied for the best record in the majors along with the Mets and Rockies at 64-42. The only problem is that the Indians are right on their tail, just one game back in the division, and the Tigers are also not too far back either. Gil Meche now leads the team in wins as the only pitcher on the team in double digit wins with 10. The Royals also have four players with double digit home runs, one of which being Jose Guillen who reached double digits far earlier in the season. Guillen is leading the team in batting average, hits, doubles, home runs, RBI, and runs. He and almost everyone else on this team are having spectacular seasons, and they hope they can keep it up going into these last two, most crucial months of the season as they chase October.
