Newcomer Nick Loftin, Royals aim to beat Red Sox again

After a decisive 13-2 win in the series opener, the Kansas City Royals will look to keep the momentum on their side Saturday night when they continue their three-game set against the visiting Boston Red Sox. Amid its struggles, Kansas City (42-94) has received a major glimpse of the future. Infielder Nick Loftin was recalled Friday from Triple-A Omaha and became the seventh player to make his MLB debut with the team this season. Loftin, 24, went 2-for-3 with an RBI double, a run and walk in his debut for the Royals, who had a season-high 17 hits Friday against Boston (69-66), which lost its fifth straight game.
