Ray Culp pitched 9 strong innings and Rico Petrocelli blasted a homerun at
Fenway Park as the Boston Red Sox beat the Kansas City Royals 4 to 1.
 
Boston took the lead off Dave Morehead in the first inning scoring 3 runners
on 2 hits.  The early run support proved sufficient for Culp(8-1) and Boston.
That was all the run support Culp required.  Boston had only 6 hits for the
afternoon.  
 
Morehead(2-3) suffered the loss.  He gave up 5 hits and 3 walks in 6 innings.
'Culp pitched a gem of a game', Charlie Metro 19-35 recounted.  'He kept our
batters off balance the entire game.'
