FLAWLESS VICTORY
KC Royals 1
Boston RS 9
W: Kurt Schilling (4-2)
L: Jimmy Gobble (1-1)
The bats came alive and Schilling was near perfect. Reese became the first Red Sox player to hit an inside the park homerun and an outside the park homerun in the same game since Tony Armas did it in Tiger Stadium in 1983. He is also the first to do it in back to back at-bats since Yaz did it many years ago.
The Man of the Game is a tough call. Reese went 2 for 4 with 2 homers, and 3 RBI. However, Schilling had a complete game allowing a mere earned run. He struck out 8 and allowed only 5 hits and no walks. Reese had a great day but a complete game will almost always win. Plus, Reese wasn't the only guy who had a good offensive day. Schilling is the MOTG.
The Sox look for the sweep tomorrow. The pitching matchup is a mismatch in our favor but you never know.
