Royals hit 3 home runs, beat Red Sox 9-3August 8, 2023 / 10:23 PM / AP By KYLE HIGHTOWER AP Sports WriterBOSTON - Drew Waters, MJ Melendez and Michael Massey each hit two-run home runs and the Kansas City Royals snapped a three-game losing streak with a 9-3 win over the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday night. Brady Singer (8-8) allowed three runs off five hits over 6 2/3 innings, and the Royals finished with six extra-base hits. Adam Duvall had his 10th home run of the season, and Connor Wong and Jarren Duran added RBIs for Boston, which has lost five of its last six. Kutter Crawford (5-6) allowed three runs on seven hits over 3 1/3 innings, striking out six and walking two.
The loss spoiled the season debut of Boston's Trevor Story, who was in the lineup for the first time since last September after being activated off the 60-day injured list following offseason shoulder surgery. He went 0 for 4 with three strikeouts. With Kansas City leading 1-0 with a runner on in the fourth, Waters connected on Crawford's cutter and lofted it into Boston's bullpen in right field for his seventh homer of the season. Three batters later, Crawford let a fastball get too far inside on Bobby Witt Jr., striking him on his hand.
Maikel Garcia led off the sixth with a walk against Red Sox reliever Dinesel Lamet, stole second, then advanced to third on a wild pitch. Garcia scored two batters later via Massey's groundout. Salvador Perez singled and Melendez followed with his 10th homer of the season to stretch the lead back to 6-2.
