Habitat KC thanked several Kansas City Royals players who had batting performances of 2 for 2 or better in a game this season, with BATS Exchange donating $500 to Habitat KC for each player in honor of their achievements, in order to help more low-income families realize their dream of home ownership. The players included Rick Ankiel, Jose Guillen, Jason Kendall, Mitch Maier, David DeJesus, Scott Podsednik, and Alberto Callaspo.
