Red Sox Win at Kansas City, 9-2
At Kauffman Stadium, the Kansas City Royals and Boston Red Sox were greeted by an enthusiastic crowd.

Starting pitcher Trent Peterson was a major factor in the 9-2 Boston Red Sox triumph over the Kansas City Royals. Peterson, the winner, moves to 3-6. He threw 6.1 innings of 4-hit ball, while fanning 6 and giving up 6 walks.

Boston right fielder Manny Ramirez contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the fifth. With two down, he hit a sinker to center field for a 2-run single. It was his 119th hit of the season and put the Red Sox ahead, 4-0.

"We did more than enough to get the win," said Ramirez.

With the victory, the Red Sox upped their record to 58-48.
