KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) _ Alberto Callaspo drove in three runs and
the Kansas City Royals eclipsed their run total from their previous
four games in a 6-4 victory over the White Sox on Saturday that
snapped Chicago's seven-game winning streak.
Callaspo hit an RBI triple off Gavin Floyd (6-6) in the fifth
for Kansas City's first run in 13 innings. His two-run single off
Matt Thornton in the fifth made it 5-4 and gave the Royals their
first lead in 38 innings. Callaspo's errors at second base had
figured in Kansas City's four-game losing streak.
It was the Royals' first win in seven tries this season against
the White Sox, who lost on the road for just the fifth time in 20
games.
Luke Hochevar (4-3) went six innings and gave up two home runs
for the Royals.
