Kansas City and Boston took Mother Nature's best shot and still managed to complete their ballgame.

The Kansas City Royals handed the Boston Red Sox a 6-3 defeat in 11 innings at Fenway Park. First Baseman Miguel Cabrera starred for Kansas City. He was 2-4 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs and drove in 4. Kansas City reliever Jeurys Familia picked up the win. Tim Mayza, who was drafted in the 2nd round of the 2016 draft, took the loss for Boston.

Cabrera had a game-changing home run in the top of the 11th. On a 1-0 slider from Brad Hand, he banged a 3-run home run to right, giving the Royals a 6-3 lead. It was the 12th home run of the year for Cabrera.

Kansas City manager praised his team's "businesslike approach."

Kansas City has now won 3 straight, while the Red Sox have lost 3 in a row.
