The game began with a defensive showcase, as neither team managed to post any runs through the first nine innings. Our boys had a few tough breakouts, like Jonathan India striking out looking and Vinnie Pasquantino swinging for the fences without success. Yet, our pitching staff, led by Michael Lorenzen and later relieved by a strong bullpen, kept the Red Sox lineup under control. We held them scoreless round after round, paving the way for a late-game opportunity.Extra-Inning Thrills & Triumph 
The Red Sox managed to secure a run in the top of the 11th, but no need to worry because we weren't going down that easily! Drew Waters expertly maneuvered his way to third on a wild pitch, setting up the scene for Pasquantino's single that brought him home, tying the game 1-1. It all came down to the bottom of the 12th when Freddy Fermin delivered sweet victory with a superb single to center that allowed Michael Massey to score, sealing the deal at 2-1! 
As Royals fans, we can hold our heads high tonight. Our team showed tremendous grit and determination, and it paid off splendidly. Let's keep riding that wave of success! Go Royals!
