Royals 5, Angels 4
Three hits and two RBIs were not all Chris Getz delievred in Kansas City's 5-4 victory over the Los Angeles on Saturday afternoon. The second baseman also saved a run in the eighth with a great relay throw to the plate that cut down Alberto Callaspo, who was trying to score from second on a double by Erick Aybar that looked as if it might be caught. Getz's play doesn't show up in the boxscore, but little things like that often spell the difference...
