Metrodome Memories

September 26, 1987 at the Metrodome
Royals 7, Twins 4  (83-72)

The Royals are now the new second place team as they passed up the Athletics in the AL West with a win over the Twins.  Steve Carlton was tagged for three runs in 5 1/3 innings while Jeff Reardon was bombed in the top of the ninth for three runs and he fell to 8-8 on the season.

Kirby Puckett singled and drove in two runs in the loss.  Kent Hrbek and Dan Gladden both had two hits while Hrbek drove in a run and Gladden scored one.
