(Sports Network) – The Kansas City Royals close out a brief two-game series
against the Chicago White Sox this afternoon at Kauffman Stadium, as they try to
make it five wins in six games to start the season. Terrell Suggs Jersey . Kansas City notched
yet another thrilling win in its final at-bat Tuesday, winning in 12 innings on
Melky Cabreras base hit to center. The 7-6 victory was the Royals fourth win of
the season and all have come via their last at- bat, including two straight in
extra innings. Billy Butler drilled a two-run homer to tie the game at 6-6 in
the eighth and Cabrera finished with three hits and three driven in. Alex Gordon
also collected three hits, including a two-run home run. The late-inning heroics
helped bail out starter Luke Hochevar, who surrendered six runs—five earned
—on seven hits in six innings. Jeremy Jeffress (1-0) got the win for getting
the final two outs in the top of the 12th. Paul Konerko launched a three-run
homer while Gordon Beckham went 3-for-6 with an RBI and a run scored for the
White Sox, who got seven decent innings from starter Gavin Floyd. He was charged
with four runs on seven hits with two walks and five strikeouts. We jumped up
early and it looked like it was going to be an easy win, Konerko said. They hung
right in there and started swinging the bats and their bullpen did a heckuva
job. Tony Pena (0-1) took the loss after coming on for the 12th, as Chris Getz
led off with a single, moved to second on Mike Aviles sacrifice bunt and crossed
the plate on Cabreras game-winning hit. It really is pretty crazy, Getz said of
the odd last at-bat win streak. I could think of two. Not three and certainly
not four. Obviously, winning is the bottom line, but hopefully we can reel off
some wins early. Jeff Francis gets the call for KC this afternoon after taking
the ball last Friday against the Angels in an encouraging outing for the
oft-injured lefty hurler. Francis lone blemish was a solo home run to Howie
Kendrick in the first inning—one of five hits allowed over seven innings. He
struck out four and walked one in his Royals debut. The 30-year-old spent the
last six seasons with Colorado and has faced the White Sox twice previously in
interleague play, going 0-1 with a 6.75 earned- run average. Mark Buehrle will
also be making his second start of the season opposite Francis and will try to
snap a two-game slide for Chicago. The veteran southpaw got the win in a 15-10
Opening Day victory against Cleveland. Buehrle went six innings and gave up four
runs on eight hits. The 32-year-old will be making his 46th career start against
Kansas City—the most against any team—with Buehrle posting a 21-11 record
and lifetime 3.57 ERA that includes two relief appearances. He matched up with
the Royals on four occasions in 2010, going 1-2 with a 3.76 ERA. Chicago will be
without slugger Adam Dunn for at least the next five days, as he apparently
underwent an emergency appendectomy Tuesday night in Kansas City. Chicago won 10
of 18 matchups with the Royals last season. Kelechi Osemele Jersey . Ryan Hamilton scored

Yankee Stadium.PHILADELPHIA—Tony DiLeo had held about every position with the
Philadelphia 76ers for more than two decades. He can officially add general
manager to that list. DiLeo was introduced Monday as the new GM and he says he
has the experience and ideas that can make the Sixers winners in the East. Hell
work alongside team president Rod Thorn. Ownership had lauded DiLeo for his role
in landing All-Star centre Andrew&nbssp;Bynum from the Los Angeles Lakers.
Ray Lewis Authentic Jersey. DiLeo says Bynum
returned last week from Germany where he had treatments done on his knees. Bynum
had injections of plasma-rich platelets that supposedly stimulate healing in
arthritis-affected areas in both of his knees. DiLeo also says hes a firm
believer in analytics and wants the Sixers to use the Moneyball-type of thinking
popularized in baseball. ’ ’ ’
