Red Sox ride Duran HR, strong outing from Bello to 6th straight win, beating Royals 8-5
By KYLE HIGHTOWER AP Sports Writer Jarren Duran hit a three-run homer and Brayan Bello pitched six effective innings, helping the Boston Red Sox beat the Kansas City Royals 8-5 on Monday night for their sixth consecutive victory. Rob Refsnyder drove in two runs, and Duran added a leaping, run-saving catch in front of the Green Monster in the fourth. Bello (8-5) allowed an unearned run and six hits. The right-hander has surrendered three earned runs or fewer in 13 of his last 14 outings. The Royals got back-to-back home runs from Vinnie Pasquantino and Maikel Garcia off Jorge Alcala as part of a four-run eighth. But Aroldis Chapman handled the ninth for his 21st save. Royals starter Bailey Falter (7-6) was pulled after four innings. He was charged with seven runs and eight hits. Refsnyder put the Red Sox in front with a two-run single in the first. Duran then pushed the lead to 5-0 with two out, hitting a 419-foot drive deep to center for his 12th homer. Boston rookie Roman Anthony was scratched from his scheduled start in right field due to mid-back tightness. He was replaced by Wilyer Abreu. With Boston leading 8-5 in the eighth, Kansas City's Bobby Witt Jr. singled to right field. Nick Loftin attempted to score from second, but Abreu's throw from right beat him and Loftin was tagged out in a collision with catcher Connor Wong. The Royals challenged, arguing Wong illegally blocked the plate, but it was upheld after a video review. The Red Sox have outscored their opponents 44-16 during their win streak. Rookie right-hander Ryan Bergert (1-0, 2.78 ERA) starts for Kansas City on Tuesday night, and left-hander Garrett Crochet (12-4, 2.23 ERA) goes for the Red Sox.

Inside the Courtland Sutton deal
The Broncos have been securing their key players to long-term contracts. One such player to get a new deal was receiver Courtland Sutton. Due to make $14 million in 2025, Sutton recently signed a four-year, $92 million extension. That's a new-money average of $23 million per year. Here's the full breakdown of the contract, per a source with knowledge of the terms: 1. Signing bonus: $18.5 million. 2. 2025 base salary: $4 million, fully guaranteed. 3. 2026 option bonus: $12 million, fully guaranteed. 4. 2026 base salary: $4.735 million, fully guaranteed. 5. 2026 per-game roster bonus: $765,000 total, fully guaranteed but must be earned. 6. 2027 base salary: $19.235 million, $1 million of which is guaranteed for injury and becomes fully guaranteed on the fifth day of the 2027 league year. 8. 2027 per-game roster bonus: $765,000 total. 9. 2028 base salary: $20.735 million. 10. 2028 per-game roster bonus: $765,000 total. 11. 2029 base salary: $23.375 million. 12. 2029 per-game roster bonus: $765,000 total. The deal has $40 million fully guaranteed at signing. The other $1 million in injury guarantees vests in 2027. It's clearly a second-tier deal. Good but not among the highest-paid of all receivers. With Bengals receiver Ja'Marr Chase now north of $40 million, Sutton is at $23 million in new-money APY. From signing, the five-year deal has an annual average of $21.2 million.
