Royals' Brown hot against Detroit THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Brown had his first two-homer game Tuesday in the Royals' 6-2 win over Detroit and has hit six of his 14 career home runs against the Tigers. The Kansas City Royals game against the Tigers yesterday was postponed by rain. The teams will play a doubleheader today at 11:05 a.m. DETROIT — Dee Brown will have to wait another day to face the Detroit Tigers. Brown didn't play in the first game of the series, a 7-3 loss Monday, but he was in the lineup yesterday. "I'm not going to disrespect the team this year," Brown said. "But in the past, their pitching hasn't been that good." "I better play him every day against the Tigers," Kansas City manager Tony Pena said. Pena was particularly impressed with Brown's first home run, a two-run shot in the seventh inning, which came off left-hander Nate Robertson. Brown, a left-handed batter, agreed. "That's the one I was really happy with. He had got me out on a couple of sinkers that he jammed me with." stands just a little longer. "I just told myself not to try to do too much," he said. "I thought I might have hooked it. But it stayed straight." He waited and got a fastball on a 3-1 pitch, which he lined into the right-field stands just inside the foul post. "It's a big ballpark," Brown, said of Comerica Park. "But right field is more to my liking than Kauffman." Brown then led off the ninth with a drive into the bullpen in right. to my inning. Today the Royals' Zack Greinke (7-9) will face the Tigers' Jason Johnson (8-12) in the first game and Darrel May (9-16) will go against Jeremy Bonderman (10-10) in the second. Cut KC kicker moves to Minnesota THE ASSOCIATED PRESS EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — Twenty-two seasons and 2,259 points later, Morten Andersen still wasn't ready to call it a career. Even after the Kansas City Chiefs cut the second-leading scorer in NFL history last weekend, Andersen didn't want to mull retirement. And his excitement to have at least one year left showed yesterday in his first press conference as a Minnesota Viking. posed to end?" he said. "I very quickly came to the conclusion it wasn't the way it was supposed to end for me. I needed to go out on my terms." needed to go out and the Vikings wasted no time yesterday breaking in their new kicker, who signed a one-year deal a day earlier. The team barely finished stretching when coach Mike Tice ordered a live field goal drill. "It was a relief when I got the call because there is a moment maybe where you think to yourself, 'Is this it? Am I done? Is this the way it's sup- As the 44-year-old Andersen made his first kick, splitting the uprights, one of the players yelled: "We finally got someone that can make extra points!" In Kansas City, Andersen's reliable reputation wasn't enough to make up for his age. The Chiefs chose youth over experience and cut Andersen on Sunday. But he fits in well in Minnesota, where the Vikings have struggled to find a consistent kicker since Gary Anderson's departure after 2002. In Andersen, the Vikings, who open the season Sunday against Dallas, get a proven kicker to shore up their most lagging unit. After Aaron Elling botched several field goals and an extra point in the preseason. Tice cut the second-year player last week and signed veteran Brett Conway. signed Tice also had reservations about the injury-prone Conway. With an explosive offense and a defense that should be improved from the last few seasons, the kicking game was Tice's biggest source of anxiety.
