Red Sox Beaten By Royals, 8-1
The rain made it unbearable at times; nonetheless, the faithful who endured the elements enjoyed themselves.

The Kansas City Royals defeated the Boston Red Sox, 8-1, in part because of shortstop Brooks Lee. Lee was 3 for 4 with 2 doubles. He scored 2 times for the Royals. Reliever Corey Kluber picked up the win. His record improves to 4-9. Tanner Bibee, who is tied for 9th in the AL with a 9.0 K/9 rate, took the loss.

The Royals ran into trouble in the top of the second. The score was 1-0, Kansas City, with two out. Boston, with the bases loaded, had Nicky Lopez at the plate. With a base hit, he could have changed the complexion of the game. Instead, he struck out and the Royals went on to win.

With the win, the Royals have a record of 54-63.
