Red Sox Earn 5-4 Win Versus Royals
The Boston Red Sox faced a tough opponent in Kansas City pitcher John Brooks, but did just enough to pull out the victory at Kauffman Stadium by a final score of 5-4. Brooks went 5.1 innings and allowed 1 run. Guadalupe Vasguez earned the save, his 6th, for the Red Sox. The Red Sox raised their record to 10-4.

Boston used a clutch hit from David Price Jr. to snatch the win. The third baseman belted a solo home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Red Sox ahead, 5-4. It was his only hit, but it was huge.

"I like the roll we're on," said Boston manager Rob Diederichs.
