Royals 11, Yankees 5
NEW YORK — Eric Hosmer and Melky Cabrera homered and the Royals handed the Yankees their first home series loss of the year while knocking them out of first place. Sean O'Sullivan retired his first 13 batters and pitched into the seventh to give Kansas City its eighth win in 12 games. The Royals' 16 hits were a season high and they won a series in the Bronx for the first time since 1999.
