Late Magic Gets Kansas City 6-4 Win
Los Angeles got a terrific game from pitcher Martin Dihigo. It wasn't enough, though, to prevent the team from falling to Kansas City, 6-4. Dihigo threw 6 innings of 5-hit ball. Fernando Rodney came out of the bullpen to earn the win. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 1.2 innings. His record now stands at 4-6. Picking up the save was Bill Stoneman. He's now 40 for 53 in save chances.

Claudell Washington had the most critical at-bat for Kansas City. With two in the top of the ninth inning, Washington hit a 2-2 fastball from Rick Aguilera for a run-scoring single. It put Kansas City in front, 5-4.

"Enjoyed this one," Washington told the Kansas City Times. "But it's back to work tomorrow."

The win gives Kansas City a season record of 81-72.
