Kansas City Tacks 9-4 Loss on Toronto
Kansas City center fielder Charlie Rogers was instrumental in helping the Kings triumph, 9-4, over the Toronto Wolves. Rogers was 1-3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Kansas City has run its win streak to 4 in a row.

An inflection point occurred with two out in the bottom of the first. That's when Kings right fielder Buzz McIlwain hit a fastball from George Hoxworth for a 2-run single. Just like that, Kansas City was up, 3-2.

"You need to show up when your number's called," said McIlwain.
