Leal Prolongs Royals Woes in Toronto Victory
Toronto right hander Luis Leal broke his four game losing streak with a six hitter as the Blue Jays beat Kansas City 4-2 to extend their win streak to five. Leon Roberts and Barry Bonnell hit solo shots, Garcia extended his 12 game hitting streak, and Buck Martinez plus Lloyd Moseby fueled the offense. The Royals managed both runs in the eighth, but double plays hurt their chances as Dick Howser lamented the miscues.
