The Kansas City Royals beat the Boston Red Sox, 9-8, at Fenway Park. Kansas City second baseman Billy Meskimen had an outstanding performance. He went 2-4 with a double, while scoring 2 and driving in 3. The Royals, with just their 8th win so far in 2059, have yet to catch fire.

Kansas City used the clutch hitting of Jon Solano to capture the win. The center fielder drilled a run-scoring double in the top of the ninth inning to give the Royals the lead, 9-8. For the game, Solano had 2 singles and 1 double in 5 at-bats.

"It wasn't a pretty victory," said Solano, "but we got it done."
