MINNEAPOLIS — Shannon Stewart's RBI single through a drawn-in infield in the eighth inning last night lifted the Minnesota Twins to a 5-4 victory against the Kansas City Royals.
Johan Santana, unbeaten in 19 starts since July 17, started the game less than an hour after the birth of his second child. Santana led 3-0 and was removed after seven innings with the scored tied 4-all.
With one out in the eighth, Lew Ford had an infield hit off reliever Jaime Cerda (1-2) and advanced to second on third baseman Joe McEwing's throwing error. Terry Tiffee was intentionally walked, and both runners moved up on a wild pitch. Michael Cuddyer was intentionally to load the bases.
Stewart then hit his RBI grounder to left, helping the Twins end a three-game losing streak.

Cubs' Garciaparra suffers groin injury ST. LOUIS, Nomar
Garciparra was carried off the field with an injured left groin that likely will land him on the 15-day disabled list for an extended period, tempering an impressive outing by Carlos Zambrano in a 3-1 victory that ended the St. Louis Cardinals' five-game winning streak last night.
ST. LOOIS - Natalia Garciaparra took two steps out of the batters' box, then collapsed in pain.
"It's not good, it's a bad groin," manager Dusty Baker said. "
The Cubs feared the worst, a torn groin, for the star shortstop they acquired at the trade deadline last July.
"I've strained my groin before but I’ve never felt anything like this before," Garciaparra said. "it’s kind of a freak thing."
Hopefully it's not as bad as anticipated, but we know it's not good - especially for a shortstop."

Kansas played only two home games against Big 12 North opponents and three road games. Next season, the schedule is reversed. Nebraska, Missouri and Iowa State all come to Memorial Stadium, while Kansas travels only to Kansas State and Colorado.
Kansas' defense will hold its opponents to less than 20 points per game. If the offense finds a way to average three touchdowns per game, Kansas will win the Big 12 North.
The main reason the Jayhawks
have a good chance is the lack of a standout team in their division. Only Colorado and Iowa State had enough victories to gain bowl eligibility in 2004.

Wichita State's Derek Schermerhorn, sophomore third baseman, tries to avoid a tag from Mike Zagurski, senior pitcher, during a run-down in the third inning of the Jayhawks' match-up against the Shockers at Hoolund Ballpark.
Jared Schweitzer and freshman outfielder Brock Simpson got the Jayhawks to within one run, but that was as close as they would get. Junior center fielder Matt Baty popped out to second base with the bases loaded, ending the threat. Wichita State added an insurance run in the eighth inning to win 11-9. Freshman pitcher Max Hutson picked up the win out of the bullpen for the Shockers. His record improves to 2-1. Czyz took the loss in the contest, dropping to 3-2 on the year. Senior Damon Sublett pitched the last 1 2/3 innings for the save after playing second base up to then.

Wichita State stranded a total of 16 base runners. Kansas left nine on base. Kansas coach Ritch Price said he was pleased with the way his offense was clicking but was disappointed in the loss.
we would go to the bulpen,
Price said. "Obviously he wasn't as good as he normally is.
That was a good performance offensively by both teams, and they got the clutch hits when they needed them."
Van Slyke said the team knew that it would have to keep scoring to win on a night like last night when both teams were hitting well.
"We came out early, scored some runs and felt good," he said. "But we knew five wasn't going to be enough."
"It it was big for us after the Baylor series to get back on track." Price said.
"I thought we could get five innings from Zagurski and then
Price thought that it was important to get on a roll offensively going into this weekend.
Kansas takes on Texas Tech in Lubbock, Texas, this weekend in a crucial three-game series. Wichita State will play Creighton in a Missouri Valley Conference series at home.
