Kansas City designated hitter Duviel Zaldivar had a 3-RBI performance, which helped his team down the Minneapolis Vikings, 4-3. Kansas City pitcher Marcos Jurado got the win. He's now 1-1. Eliecer Cervantes was tagged with the loss. Chris Whiffen closed it out for Kansas City, earning his 1st save.

With Kansas City leading 1-0 in the top of the first, Zaldivar hit a fastball from Eliecer Cervantes for a 3-run home run. It was his 4th home run of the season and put the Athletics ahead, 4-0.

"Bottom line," said Minneapolis skipper Ace Cooan, "we didn't play well enough to win."

The Vikings fall to 9-11 and continue their uneven start to the 2080 season.
