Luis Mendoza (1-2) allowed three runs and six hits over six innings, striking out six and walking none as the Royals began a nine-game road trip following a three-game sweep by the New York Yankees.

The Angels were 4-4 in those games. Kansas City opened the scoring in the first when Alex Gordon singled with two outs and came all the way around on Butlers double off the right-field wall. Two innings later, Butler drove in two more with a two-out single. Thee Angels got on the board in the third with an RBI single by Chris Iannetta, who had one hit in his previous 27 at-bats.dddddddddddd But the Royals increased the margin to 4-1 in the fourth with Jarrod Dysons two-out RBI double, and they tacked on three more in the fifth with an RBI single by Lorenzo Cain and a two-run double by No. 8 hitter Salvador Perez that chased Blanton. Even the Angels improving bullpen couldnt contain Butler, whose two-run double highlighted a three-run sixth against rookie Michael Roth and gave the Royals a 10-1 cushion. The hit increased his RBI total to 25 and snapped a string of scoreless innings by Angels relievers. NOTES: Butler, who was an All-Star for the first time last season, was moved into the cleanup spot five games ago after batting third most of the season. ... Blanton struck out the side on 16 pitches in the second, his only 1-2-3 inning. The only time this season that he has left a game with a lead was April 22 against Texas, when the bullpen blew a 6-3 advantage and he ended up with a six-inning no-decision. ...
