Royalshome.com | Kansas City Royals News, royals Scores, Game Recaps & Commentary - --RHP Kyle Farnsworth worked a flawless sixth inning Tuesday and has not allowed a run in seven straight appearances, covering eight innings, while striking out seven. Farnsworth went 0-3 and allowed seven runs in 3 1/3 innings in his first five appearances, but he has lowered his ERA to 5.56.
--LF David DeJesus snapped an 0-for-14 skid with an infield single in the fifth. DeJesus, however, struck out in his final two at-bats, dropping his average to .223. DeJesus went 8-for-14 last year at Oakland. --CF Coco Crisp stole second base in the first inning, giving him seven stolen bases in his past six games. Crisp went 3-for-3 with a home run, raising his average to .261.
--RHP Sidney Ponson made his first relief appearance of the season Tuesday after six starts. Ponson allowed four runs, two earned, on four hits and two walks in two innings against the Athletics. RHP Luke Hochevar, who was recalled from Class AAA Omaha, replaced Ponson in the rotation, but was roughed up for eight runs in two innings at Oakland.

RHP Joakim Soria (stiff right shoulder) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to May 8.
