Hawk Taylor's 3-Run Homer Tops Tigers in Royals Win
Ken Harrelson's fellow Hawk Bob Hawk Taylor delivered a towering three run homer with two out in the ninth as the expansion Kansas City Royals rallied to beat the Detroit Tigers 7-6. The win kept Detroit mired in a four game slide while Chicago, Cleveland, Oakland and Boston won or held leads in other AL games. Taylor, once a highly touted bonus baby, explained his drive to help the Royals after a career largely in the minors.
