| The Royals come away with a win in 13 innings, the first time in 8 tries that the Red Sox have not been victorious in extra innings. The Red Sox had to play comeback 3 times in this one: the Royals took a one run lead in the 9th, but JD Drew tied it with a solo shot; the Royals again scored a run in the 12th, but Jason Varitek tied it back up with a solo shot; finally, the run in the 13th sticks for Kansas City. Plenty of missed opportunities in this one, as the Red Sox left 13 men on base. |

Billy Butler had 5 hits and 3 RBI and Jimmy Gobble had a strong outing at
Fenway Park where the Kansas City Royals beat the Boston Red Sox in 13
innings by the score of 7 to 6.
The score was tied at 5 after nine. Kansas City came out the victor in the
13th inning. Mark Grudzielanek doubled. After an out was recorded, Butler
came to the plate and laced a base-hit scoring the run. A wild affair, this
game saw the lead change 7 times.
The victory was credited to Ryan Braun(1-1) who went 1/3 of an inning,
allowing no runs. Octavio Dotel earned the save, his 7th. Joel Pineiro(2-1)
was the losing pitcher in relief. He surrendered 2 runs and 4 hits in 2
innings.
