The Boston Red Sox picked up a win at Fenway Park, dropping the Kansas City Royals, 5-4. Shane Bieber, who leads the AL in complete games with 3, was the difference-maker. Boston reliever Anthony Banda picked up the win to move to 3-8. Neil Ramirez suffered the loss. Boston raised its record to 72-69 with the win.

Willy Adames was the walk-off hero for Boston. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Red Sox shortstop hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"Shane did what Shane does," said Boston manager Jonathan Sanders.
