Red Sox feast on Royals' miscues for a 7-1 win in KC
TL;DR Summary
Boston capitalized on a string of Kansas City miscues and a rough start from Bailey Falter (after Kris Bubic’s elbow soreness) to roll to a 7-1 victory in Kansas City. The Sox took the lead thanks to defensive errors, then pulled away in the ninth with Jarren Duran belting a three‑run homer and reaching base four times, while Isiah Kiner‑Falefa also reached base four times. The bullpen locked things down late, giving Boston a win built more on gifts than guts.
