Kansas City Makes It 6 Straight with 6-5 Win
New York got a big-time effort from pitcher Ron Guidry, but it wasn't enough to keep the Kansas City Monarchs from winning the game, 6-5. Guidry threw 7.0 innings of 5-hit ball for the losing team. Jeff Pfeffer, credited with the save, is now 12 for 14 in save opportunities. The 4th-place Monarchs have won 6 in a row.

Kansas City used the timely hitting of Albert Pujols to seize the win. The third baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Monarchs on top, 6-5. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Winning the game is always the first objective," Pujols said.
