Alex gordon game 1 homer series#
Red Sox: Rookie LF Andrew Benintendi went through another series of tests Friday which reaffirmed the original diagnosis of no structural damage to his sprained left knee. It had a chance to add more after loading the bases with one out, but the potential rally stalled when Sandy Leon and Jackie Bradley, Jr. The Royals jumped on Wright at the outset, taking a 5-0 lead in the first inning on a three-run shot by Hosmer, followed quickly by a two-run blast by Gordon.īoston had three hits and got one run back in its half of first. Mookie Betts had five hits and two RBI for the Red Sox, while Dustin Pedroia had four hits in four at-bats, drew a walk, drove in a run and scored a run. It also had been the longest by a Red Sox pitcher since Pedro Martinez did it over 44 starts. Before Friday, he had not allowed more than one home run in any of his previous 26 starts, which was the fourth-longest active streak in the majors. Wright lost despite going at least six innings for the 10th time in 15 starts. Steven Wright (13-6) took the loss in his first game back off the disabled list with a right shoulder strain, giving up five runs, all in the first inning, and seven hits. Lorenzo Cain added a solo homer in the eighth inning. But he left with a runner on after 5 innings and wound up charged for two earned runs in the game. Kennedy (9-9) had a chance set a club record by allowing one or fewer runs in six straight outings of at least six innings. Kansas City has won 11 of its last 12 games and is 18-6 in August.
