Free Falling Vikings Lose Again
Boosted by the 4-hit performance of Jake Doctor the Kansas City Athletics defeated the Minneapolis Vikings, 8-2. The misery continues for the Vikings, who have now dropped 10 in a row.

The fans who filled the stands at Ballpark of Missouri to watch the Western Conference action seemed to enjoy the game.

Minneapolis manager Ace Cooan, after yet another defeat, remained upbeat. He said: "We're going to get out of this thing, we're going to come busting through."
