BOSTON -- August continues to be kind to the Kansas City Royals. http://www.eaglesrookiestore.com/Eagles-Sidney-Jones-Jersey/ .Eric Hosmer and Alex Gordon homered, and Ian Kennedy allowed one run through five innings as the Kansas City Royals continued their monthlong hot streak with a 6-3 victory over the Boston Red Sox on Friday night.Kansas City has won 11 of its last 12 games and is 18-6 in August.Hosmer homered for the second time this season off Red Sox knuckleballer Steven Wright (13-6), who took the loss in his first game back off the disabled list with a right shoulder strain, giving up five runs and seven hits.Honestly, you just have to swing hard and hope the ball doesnt break. But if it does, it breaks into your bat, Hosmer said.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. But he left with a runner on after 5 1/3 innings and wound up charged for two earned runs in the game. He finished with nine strikeouts.Kelvin Herrera earned his 10th save.Lorenzo Cain added a solo homer in the eighth inning.Wright lost despite going at least six innings for the 10th time in 15 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. It also had been the longest by a Red Sox pitcher since Pedro Martinez did it over 44 starts.I had a little bit of a feeling with Steven Wright being on the DL and not pitching, that knuckleball is a feel pitch, Royals manager Ned Yost said. My thought was `Maybe its going to take him an inning or two to settle in. I was right.Mookie Betts had five hits and two RBI for the Red Sox. Dustin Pedroia added four hits and an RBI.Thats just how it goes sometimes, Betts said. Sometimes we score the ones were not expecting and then when we you need to score, sometimes it just doesnt happen.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.Boston had three hits and got one run back in its half of first. 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. both struck out.TRAINERS ROOMRoyals: RHP Wade Davis (right flexor strain) is expected to throw for Triple-A Omaha on Saturday, and then possibly again on Monday. Yost said he doesnt anticipate him returning before Sept. 1.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. He was hurt during Bostons loss to the Rays Wednesday night. Benintendi was walking around the clubhouse with no brace Friday. Obviously its something you dont plan on, he said. Its unfortunate that it happened and Im just going to try to get as healthy as possible as quickly as I can. ... RHP Koji Uehara, who has been on the DL since July 20 with right pectoral sprain, threw a bullpen session Friday.STREAK ENDSKansas Citys bullpen extended its scoreless streak to 41 1/3 innings pitching before allowing a run in the ninth inning. It was the longest streak in the majors since the Kansas City As went 44 innings in 1966.OLYMPIC HOMECOMINGNeedham, Massachusetts native and Olympic medalist Aly Raisman began her homecoming tour Friday by throwing out the first pitch before the game.Raisman won her second Olympic gold medal as a member of the U.S. womens gymnastics team in Rio, as well as two silver medals in the womens individual all-around and floor exercise.Before tossing her pitch, Raisman took off the medals she was wearing and let David Ortiz wear them while he caught for her.UP NEXTRoyals: LHP Danny Duffy (11-1, 2.66 ERA) will make his 20th start of the season and 100th of his career on Saturday. He earned his 10th straight win in Kansas Citys 2-1 win over Minnesota on Sunday, holding the Twins to one run and eight hits. His next strikeout will be the 500th of his career.Red Sox: LHP David Price (12-8, 4.00) leads the majors with nine starts of at least eight innings this season. His 2.01 career ERA against the Royals is the third-lowest among active pitchers.---Follow Kyle Hightower on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/khightower http://www.eaglesrookiestore.com/Eagles-Chris-Long-Jersey/ . The Vikings announced Thursday that Priefer will be one of seven holdovers from the previous staff, along with offensive line coach Jeff Davidson, wide receivers coach George Stewart and others. Norv Turner will mark his 30th year of coaching in the NFL as the offensive co-ordinator, as widely reported for weeks, and George Edwards will be the defensive co-ordinator. http://www.eaglesrookiestore.com/...igel-Bradham-Jersey/ . Patrice Bergeron and Daniel Paille scored 20 seconds apart a few minutes after Stamkos was taken off the ice on a stretcher with a broken right leg, and the Bruins beat the Lightning 3-0 on Monday afternoon. http://www.eaglesrookiestore.com/Eagles-Seth-Joyner-Jersey/ . "I wrote 36 on my sheet at the beginning of the game," the Cincinnati coach said, referring the yard line the ball would need to be snapped from.Melbourne Victory have released Olyroo Scott Galloway but brought in German Maximilian Beister, filling the clubs allowance of foreign players for the A-League season.Its all changed on Victorys left flank, with Galloway understood to be heading to Central Coast Mariners and Beister joining on a year-long loan from Bundesliga club Mainz.The move is not a like-for-like swap, with Beister able to play left back but more at home further up the field - boosting the firepower available to coach Kevin Muscat.The 26-year-old former German youth international has experience playing in Germanys top two tiers with Hamburg and Fortuna Dusseldorf.We are constantly looking for ways to improve our squad, and we have actively been searching for player who can add depth to our midfield and attacking third, Muscat said.He has proven over a long period of time that he can make an impact in one of the worlds toughest leagues, and his versatility allows him to play in midfield and also in attack.Beister will arrive at Victory later this week to help the A-League powerhouse attempt to climb the ladder after a return of just one pointt in two games. http://www.eaglesrookiestore.com/...hris-Maragos-Jersey/. Galloway wont be around to help Victorys cause after Muscat decided the 21-year-old was surplus to requirements.Macedonian international Daniel Georgievski, 28, has been preferred in Victorys first two matches of the season while Leigh Broxham has also been tried in the position through the clubs pre-season and FFA Cup run.Beisters addition means the club has enough cover in the role, with Muscat thanking the West Australian-raised player for his contribution over four A-League campaigns.I will leave Victory a better footballer and person than when I arrived, Galloway said.The last four seasons I have been fortunate enough to be part of a Championship-winning team and Ive experienced playing in the Asian Champions League and against clubs like Liverpool and Juventus.However I believe the time is right to explore a fresh opportunity to give myself the chance to play consistent first team football.Galloway made 63 appearances for Victory since joining in 2013.
