Royals down Yanks for 1st home win of season May 4th 2012, 03:45 Kansas City, MO –  After 10 consecutive home losses to start the year, the Kansas City Royals finally recorded a win at Kauffman Stadium. Mike Moustakas had two hits, including a solo home run, to go with three runs batted in as the Kansas City Royals edged the New York Yankees, 4-3, in the opener of a three-game set on Thursday. Moustakas also made a nifty barehanded play on Alex Rodriguez's slow roller down the third-base line to end the ballgame, stranding Derek Jeter at third base. Danny Duffy (2-2) allowed two runs on six hits and two walks in 5 1/3 innings for Kansas City, which has won five of its past seven games. Prior to the game, Mariano Rivera injured his right knee while attempting to snag a fly ball along the warning track. He leapt at the wall and as he came down, his knee buckled underneath him. He immediately clutched at his knee and was in visible pain. Rivera, whose 608 saves are the most in MLB history, had to be carted off the field as concerned teammates and coaches looked on.
