Wilkins Slugs Royals to 11-4 Win
The 1997 season is getting ugly for Boston.

Behind the bravura of catcher Rick Wilkins, the Kansas City Royals topped the Boston Red Sox by the score of 11-4. Wilkins went 2-2 with 2 home runs and 2 walks, while scoring 4 times and driving in 3 for the Royals. Kansas City improves to 40-22 with the win. They lead their division by 5 games.

With the clubs tied 0-0 in the bottom of the second and a runner on 1st, catcher Wilkins, who is a three-time All-Star, hit a 2-run home run.

"This is a very good team," said Wilkins. "We have the chance to do something special."
