The Royals pick up a series-opening victory in Boston just before the All-Star break.
On Friday night, the Kansas City Royals continued their hot streak, defeating the Boston Red Sox 6-1 at Fenway Park. Bobby Witt Jr. and MJ Melendez each launched solo home runs, while Cole Ragans delivered a stellar performance on the mound, allowing just one run over seven innings.
The Royals got on the board early with a sacrifice fly from Perez in the first inning, bringing Frazier home. They extended their lead in the second inning with a series of hits: Frazier singled to center, scoring Melendez; Pasquantino hit a sacrifice fly, scoring Isbel; and Perez singled to left, scoring Frazier. The Red Sox managed their lone run in the bottom of the second when Ceddanne Rafaela doubled to center, bringing home Jordan Westburg.
Melendez sealed the victory with a solo shot to right-center in the eighth inning, his homer traveling 392 feet.
