Hal McRae and George Brett figured in the scoring of four runs as the Royals ended their three-game losing streak by defeating the Indians, 5-2. McRae homered in the first inning and batted in another run with a grounder in the fifth. Brett tripled a run across in the fourth and scored himself when George Hendrick made a bad throw home after catching a short fly ball by Al Cowens.
