The Kansas City Royals edged the Philadelphia Phillies 9-8 on Sunday as Billy Butler recorded a franchise-record 7 RBIs.


Butler hit the first grand slam of his Major League career in the fifth inning.


He had been 2-for-15 with one RBI in the Royals' first five games entering Sunday.


"It was just a matter of time with Billy Butler," Royals manager Ned Yost said. "You knew he'd break out and do some damage."
