BOSTON (AP) — Kutter Crawford took a one-hitter into the eighth inning, Rafael Devers hit a solo homer and the Boston Red Sox beat potential AL All-Star starter Seth Lugo in a 5-0 victory over the Kansas City Royals. Crawford struck out four and walked one, throwing 76 of his 96 pitches for strikes on Saturday. He gave up Maikel Garcia’s leadoff single in the eighth before manager Alex Cora lifted him. The righty walked off to a standing ovation. The Red Sox improved to 19-8 since June 12. Kansas City’s four-game winning streak was snapped.
