Twins stretch Royals' slide to 11 (AP)
If Jose Guillen's profanity-filled tirade was meant to light a fire under the lethargic Kansas City Royals, Kevin Slowey did a good job of dousing the flames. The Minnesota right-hander threw his first major league complete game and Carlos Gomez had four hits and two RBIs, leading the Twins to a 5-1 victory Thursday night that stretched KC's losing streak to 11 straight.
