ATLANTA, April 17 () -- Wade Davis scattered five hits Wednesday in pitching the Kansas City Royals to a 1-0 victory that snapped the Atlanta Braves' 10-game winning streak.Davis (2-0) lasted seven innings,[url=http://www.kbcrussia.com/]true religion jeans outlet[/url], striking out seven but not walking a batter.Davis ended the Braves' first scoring chance by striking out Justin Upton,[url=http://www.chronotime.net/]louboutin men[/url], stranding Jason Heyward at second in the sixth inning.The following inning, Juan Francisco singled with two outs. Chris Johnson followed with a bloop down the right-field line that landed just beyond the diving Kansas City second baseman Chris Getz. Francisco tried to score but Getz ran down the ball and threw to catcher Salvador Perez and Francisco was out by a wide margin.Kelvin Herrera pitched a one-hit eighth, setting up Royals closer Greg Holland,[url=http://www.chronotime.net/]cheap christian louboutin shoes[/url], who finished the game with three quick strikeouts for his third save.Atlanta starter Mike Minor (2-1) also allowed just five hits and struck out five in six innings.However, the Royals bunched three of the hits in the fourth inning for a run.Alcides Escobar opened the inning with a single. Minor got two outs but Lorenzo Cain singled Escobar to second and Jeff Francoeur delivered a line-drive base hit to left that drove in Escobar.It was the first Atlanta loss since April 4,[url=http://www.fbrecs.com/]Jimmy Choo Sale[/url], the third game of the season.
