First baseman Rafael Palmeiro blasted a homerun and had 2 RBI as the Kansas
City Royals outscored the Tampa Bay Devil Rays in 12 innings 7 to 6.

The score was knotted at 6 after nine innings.  Kansas City won it in the 12th
inning.  Vinny Castilla smashed a bases-empty 'big-fly' (his 2nd of the
season).  Tampa Bay was out-hit by Kansas City, 15 hits to 10.  

Bryce Florie(1-0) allowed no runs in 2/3 of an inning, and picked up the
victory. Trevor Hoffman recorded his 3rd save.  C.J. Nitkowski(0-1) suffered
the loss in relief.  He allowed 1 run and 1 hit without retiring a batter.
