Better late than never...Here's the series preview for the Kanas City Royals.

There were a lot of hits in Sunday's series finale in Kansas City. The Twins totaled 22 hits in the game, but no one had more than Jason Bartlett's 5. In the past week, since July 31st, Bartlett has had 5 multi-hit games and he's seen his average rise to .377. He of course, has only about half the plate appearances required to qualify as a league leader, but he's no doubt been extremely valuable at the bottom of the order. On Sunday he drove in the Twins first run of the game with a bloop single just past Royal first baseman Ryan Shealy.
