They were otherwise hamstrung by Royals starter Ervin Santana, who dodged eight hits and two walks over six innings to hand his bullpen the lead. The Royals relievers -- with little help from their defence -- failed to hold on. Johnsons error turned the game, Royals manager Ned Yost said, and eventually led to the go-ahead runs. "In Elliots defence, it was cue-ball shot with a lot of English. It had a lot of spin on it, it hit and then boom, it stayed down," Yost said. "It changed the whole complexion of the inning." For his part, Johnson refused to make any excuses. "Were in the middle of the hunt and theyre not going to tolerate that sort of stuff. It seems like an easy play," Johnson said. "It wasnt as easy as it seems, (but) still I should have made it. Im playing in the big leagues and youve got to make those kinds of plays."
