City of Boston honored as Royals lose to Red Sox (VIDEO)

April 20, 2013 By Bill Pollock

Following an emotional pregame ceremony in which the victims and first responders of the Boston Marathon bombings were honored, the Red Sox got a clutch three-run homer from Daniel Nava off reliever Kelvin Herrera to win their seventh straight in a 4-3 final.

Pinch-hitter Jonny Gomes opened the eighth inning with a double off Tim Collins, and after a walk, David Ortiz rapped hit into a double play. However, Herrera entered the game and walked Mike Napoli before giving up the homer to Nava for a 4-2 deficit.

In the ninth Lorenzo Cain hit a home run to left field — his fourth hit of the game, but the Royals came up short. They grabbed a 2-1 lead as Salvador Perez tripled home Cain in the seventh. Jeff Francouer gave the Royals a 1-0 lead with an RBI single.
