Jonathan India hit a three-run homer and Michael Wacha scattered five hits over six innings to help the Kansas City Royals beat the Red Sox 7-3 on Wednesday night, ending Boston's seven-game winning streak.

Despite the Red Sox' victory, one of the main storylines was around rookie outfielder Roman Anthony, who was a late scratch on Monday due to back tightness. Ahead of their game against Kansas City on Tuesday, the Red Sox made an official decision regarding the 21-year-old after missing Monday's game.

The visiting Kansas City Royals put up a pair of crooked numbers as they overcame an early two-run deficit and beat the Boston Red Sox 7-3 on Wednesday night in the finale of a three-game series.
