Royals Mow Down Red Sox, 12-2
The Kansas City Royals beat the Boston Red Sox, 12-2, at Fenway Park. The win was largely due to the efforts of right fielder Jesse Winker, who captured player of the game honors. He was 3-4 with 3 singles and 2 walks. He scored 3 times. Dereck Rodriguez picked up the win with 5 innings of work. He allowed 1 earned run on 4 hits, while walking 2 and striking out 4. On the season, he is now 7-10. Kansas City now sits in second place in the American League Central Division at 63-53.

The Royals picked up the win with a combination of good hitting and good pitching.

"We maximized our offense today," said Kansas City skipper Bryce Shuck. "That makes everyone's life easier."
