Royals Wrest Win from Red Sox, 6-5
Boston got a terrific performance from pitcher Smoky Joe Wood, but it wasn't enough to beat the Kansas City Royals. Kansas City won the Kauffman Stadium contest, 6-5. Wood threw 8.0 innings of 6-hit ball for the losing team. Kyle Farnsworth picked up the win in relief. His record improves to 2-1. Dick Radatz suffered the loss. The second-place Royals improved to 29-31.

Kansas City got a clutch hit from Jose Offerman. The second baseman socked a 3-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was game-ender.

"I'm glad I got one I could handle. Glad I got the barrel on it," said Offerman.
