Red Sox Sneak Past Royals, 4-3
Kansas City designated hitter Justin Smoak had a good game in a losing cause. His team fell, 4-3, to Boston at Fenway Park. Smoak slugged 2 home runs. Boston, at 50-66, occupies second place in the AL East Division.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the ninth inning, when Boston left fielder Matt Holliday, facing Kelvin Herrera, had a run-scoring walk. It gave the Red Sox the 4-3 win.

"It's great when the crowd goes berserk," Holliday said.
