Kings Rally For Late Win Over G-Strings
The Kansas City Kings faced a tough opponent in Nashville pitcher Kip Manning, but did just enough to pull out the victory at Gibson Guitar Park by a final score of 7-4. Manning went 6.1 innings and allowed 1 earned run. Alberto Bonilla picked up the win in relief, improving his record to 5-2. Mario Machado was tagged with the loss. Nick Parks got the save, his 22nd in 26 chances.

The result might have been different for Kansas City, had it not been for Brian Easdale. The left fielder produced a 2-run single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Kings ahead, 6-4. For the game, Easdale had 1 double and 2 singles in 5 at-bats.

"I still think this team has room for improvement," Easdale told the Kansas City News.

The Kings bumped their record to 71-58 with this latest triumph.
