He was charged with 3 runs on 6 hits, while walking 3 and striking out 3. His record now stands at 5-0. Kansas City falls to 15-11.

Boston relied on the hitting of Ruben Sierra to pick up the win. The left fielder clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Red Sox on top, 4-3. For the game, Sierra had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"We'll grab a barley pop and savor this win," said Sierra.
