However, it wasn't all smooth sailing as they faced challenges against Boston Red Sox where despite putting up four runs from nine hits; they allowed five earned runs due to some power hitting by Boston.


The venue might give Royals an edge; Kauffman Stadium has been kind to them lately with significant wins under their belt at home soil which could boost team morale and fan support during this crucial game.
