Extra-Inning Win by Red Sox Over Royals
In a tight contest at Kauffman Stadium, the Boston Red Sox edged the Kansas City Royals by the score of 5-4. Boston designated hitter Nathan Hickey, who blasted 1 home run, was a key contributor. Kenley Jansen, now 8-1, picked up the win in relief. He allowed no runs on no hits in 2 innings. Boston is now 58-56.

Nick Gordon, the 28-year old second baseman , had a direct impact on the outcome. Gordon contributed a run-scoring walk in the top of the sixth inning to put Boston up, 4-3.

"We didn't go down without a fight," said Kansas City manager Patrick Ochs.
