Chen Whitewashes Kansas City, 7-0
It was not a good day at the plate for the Kansas City Royals. They came up empty when it mattered against Boston Red Sox left-hander Wei-Yin Chen, who scattered 4 hits across 9 innings and held the Royals scoreless.

"We had 4 hits so I know he wasn't completely untouchable, but he was close," Kansas City manager Mike Matheny said later.

Chen chalked up 4 strikeouts and no walks in the 7-0 Red Sox win.

Thus far this season Chen has posted a 2-2 record, started 4 games, struck out 24 batters in 34.2 innings and compiled a 4.15 ERA.
