KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Jordan Lyles pitched eight strong innings as the Kansas City Royals defeated the Boston Red Sox 13-2 in the first game of a three-game series. Lyles (4-15), who leads the majors in losses, had one of his best outings of the season. He allowed two runs on four hits, struck out seven and did not give up a walk. He didn’t allow a run until Alex Verdugo’s two-out home run in the eighth. Salvador Perez hit two home runs for his second multi-homer game of the season. James Paxton (7-5) allowed six runs on five hits in 1 1/3 innings.
