James Shields knows what this September means to the Kansas City Royals, a team that hasn't been to the playoffs since many of their players were born. Shields took a two-hitter into the ninth inning and Nori Aoki lined a run-scoring single in the third following Chase Headley's two-base error, leading the Royals over the New York Yankees 1-0. We have to take the first game of every series - that is the goal.'' Kansas City (78-61), which began the night one game in front of Detroit in the AL Central, is in first place in September for the first time since 1985 - when the Royals won the World Series in their last postseason trip. Kansas City has won four in a row and is 17 games over .500 for the first time since 1989, according to STATS.
