(AP)—Kansas City the 19th American League绿茵, the Baltimore League in the lineup for the Royals against the California Angels last night because of a Todd Curt replaced Brett at three for the game in which a loss to the first place Angels would eliminate the Royals from the pennant chase. Kansas City has been AL Western Division champions the past three years, and has been the team leader in almost all battles. Brett, hitting it with 23 home runs and 10 RBIs, 119 scored and 321 hits, was the team's second night's 4- California victory when he charged from third base on a bunt, then ran into first base. Brett said last night that he heard something pop in his left knee. "I had an arthrogram today and the doctor diagnosed it in a pinched cartilage," said game kid EK during the rest of the game, but I uped this morning and could hardy walk. "It's real sore, but don't know if it's sore from the injury or the needles used to inject dye for the arthrogram." Brett said his playing status was probably a day-to-day thing. The Royals have only four games left on their regular season schedule after last night's contest.
