Arbitrators rule against Orioles pitcher Bergesen
KANSAS CITY, Mo., Sept. 17 (UPI) -- Gil Meche allowed two runs on six hits over seven innings Wednesday, boosting Kansas City to a 5-2 win over Seattle.
Seattle's Ichiro Suzuki had three hits in the game and reached the 200-hit plateau for the eighth straight year. That equals the major league record established by Willie Keeler 107 years ago.
Suzuki had shared the American League record of seven with Wade Boggs. Despite Suzuki's heroics, Seattle lost its seventh straight.
Meche (12-11) struck out seven in helping Kansas City win its sixth in a row. Joakim Soria worked a perfect ninth for his 40th save.
Kansas City overcame a 2-1 deficit with a three-run seventh. Jose Guillen singled in two runs in the inning to put the Royals in front. Guillen has hit in 14 straight games.
Reliever Roy Corcoran (5-2) took the loss, giving up three runs while recording only two outs.
