Dutch Miller made an impact in the 7-2 Kansas City win over Cleveland. Miller, who is on pace for 115 RBI this season, was 3 for 5 with a double and 2 singles. He drove in 4 runs. After today's action, Kansas City sits at 78-55, while Cleveland falls to 79-57.

Elmer Grace had a big solo home run for the Kings in the top of the third inning. With Kansas City leading 1-0 and the bases empty, he got a sinker from Adrian Czerwinski and swatted a home run to right-center. It was his 11th home run of the season, and more importantly, it put the Kings ahead, 2-0.

"We put it together and came out with the win," Miller said in postgame remarks. "That's the main thing."
