Season series: Boston leads 4-1
After falling into an early 3-1 deficit Tuesday, the Royals tied it in the 5th inning on a HR by 2B Michael Massey and an RBI double from 1B Vinnie Pasquatino. But Royals RHP Seth Lugo threw a wild pitch to allow 1B Dominic Smith to score the go-ahead run and the underdog Red Sox went on to win 6-5.
Boston will now be looking to sweep the Royals after winning 9-5 on Monday.
