Red Sox Sunk by Royals
Kansas City Royals starter Scott Blewett pitched his team past the Boston Red Sox, 6-2. In 7 innings, Blewett surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 9 and walking 1. He allowed 1 run. Kansas City has now won 5 straight.

Jorge Palmeiro had a big run-scoring double for the Royals in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Kansas City leading 1-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a slider from 25-year old right-handed pitcher Tim McKnight and swatted a double to right. It was his 6th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Royals ahead, 2-0.

"I think we did a good job of looking for pitches we wanted to hit and put good swings on them," said Kansas City skipper Jim Tracy.
