June 7, 2008 - Johnny enjoys a 6-for-6, 4 RBI day in a see-saw 12-11 victory against the Kansas City Royals. His six hits included a leadoff double in the bottom of the first and five more singles.

Johnny tied the game at 10 in the bottom of the 8th with a two-run single. With the game tied and Mariano Rivera now on the mound, David Dejesus quickly broke the tie with a leadoff home run on the first pitch. In the bottom of the inning, Jorge Posada lined a one-out home run into the right field stands to tie up the game and hand KC closer Joakim Soria his first blown save of the year. Robinson Cano followed with a groundout before a Wilson Betemit walk and Melky Cabrera infield single set up Johnny's game winning single.
