Summary

With offense in no shortage this game, the opening game of the 3 game series with the Royals ends with a W for the Royals and the Sox trying to figure out how to win game 2 of the series tomorrow. Although its nice to see some of the bats start to pick up and get on base, its concerning that the pitching is struggling as of late giving up 42 runs in the last 5 games.

Here's where the teams rank in the MLB:
