Royals Drop Giants, 4-1
Detroit got a decent performance from pitcher Julian Bryant, but it wasn't enough to beat the Cincinnati Royals. Cincinnati won the Ballpark of Detroit contest, 4-1. Bryant threw 9.0 innings of 6-hit ball for the losing team. Roberto Salazar recorded the save, his 28th. The last-place Giants dropped to 54-59.

Cincinnati used a well-timed hit by Allen Marshall to capture the win. The second baseman socked a 2-run double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Royals ahead, 3-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

Said losing manager Sean O'Leary: "The at-bats, obviously, needed to be better."
