KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) --- Garrett Crochet allowed one run on seven hits over
seven innings, Rafael Devers was 4 for 4 with three RBIs and the Boston Red Sox
beat Kansas City 10-1 on Saturday night to end the Royals' winning streak at
seven.
Crochet (4-2) struck out nine and walked one. He struck out Bobby Witt Jr. with
the bases loaded to end the seventh.
Trevor Story blew open a close game with a three-run homer.
Cole Ragans (2-2) took the loss. He allowed four runs on seven hits through
five innings. He struck out eight and walked two.
The Red Sox got to Ragans in the third. With two outs, Jarren Duran singled and
scored on Devers' double.
The Royals answered with a run in the bottom of the third. Witt stroked a
one-out single, stole second, went to third on a balk and scored on a looping
hit by Mark Canha.
The Red Sox scored three runs in the fifth on four consecutive hits. Duran,
Devers and Alex Bregman each delivered RBI singles.
Story's home run came with two outs in the seventh, and Carlos Narvaez added a
two-run shot in the eighth.
Key moment After the Red Sox took a 4-1 lead in the fifth inning, Crochet got the shut-down inning he needed. Even with an error by shortstop Trevor Story, Crochet didn't allow a runner to reach second base.
