Catcher Salvador Perez launched 3 homeruns and had 7 RBI as the Kansas City
Royals defeated the Minnesota Twins 9 to 3 at Tropicana Field.

Perez was unconscious out there.  While Minnesota pitching was serving
softballs up there for him to hit, the Minnesota fans were serving up some
hardball barbs when he entered the batter's box.  But he just used it as fuel
for the fire.  He lifted one out of the park for a two run home run in the
1st inning, smacked a three-run homer in the 5th inning, blasted a two-run
home run in the 7th inning and doubled in the 9th inning.  Kansas City had 12
hits for the night while Minnesota had 5.  

The victory was credited to Max Scherzer(2-0) who went 7 innings, allowing 3
runs. Brandon Woodruff(1-2) was tagged with the loss.  He was touched for 7
hits and 2 walks in 4 innings.  

'Some days it just all comes together, and this was one of them' Perez said.
'I've been seeing the ball pretty well lately.'

Max Scherzer took a no-hitter into the 6th inning as the Kansas City Royals
defeated the Minnesota Twins 7 to 5 at Tropicana Field.

Scherzer(3-0) came through with a virtuoso performance against the Minnesota
hitters.  He was stingy on the mound, allowing just 2 hits and no walks in 7
innings.  Scherzer recorded 8 strikeouts.  The right-handed Scherzer lost a
no-hitter when Danny Jansen doubled with one out in the 6th inning.
Minnesota tried unsuccessfully to come back in the 9th.  

Shane McClanahan(1-2) was tagged with the loss.  He served up 3 homeruns in
his 6 innings.
