The Boston Red Sox bested the Kansas City Royals by a score of 6-1, with shortstop Bryan Clair getting the main credit. On the day, Clair was 2-3 with 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs for the Red Sox. The win has Boston at 3-2.

Antonio Garcia had a big run-scoring double for the Red Sox in the bottom of the fifth inning. With Boston leading 2-1 and a runner on 3rd, he got a splitter from 33-year old right-handed pitcher Matt Heidt and swatted a double to left-center. It was his 2nd double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Red Sox ahead, 3-1.

Garcia said his team "played with determination."
