Stop us if you’ve heard this before: J.D. Martinez homered for the Red Sox.
With Boston up 4-0 on the Kansas City Royals on Friday, the designated hitter jumped all over a 92 mph fastball and sent it over the right field wall at Kauffman Stadium to extend the Red Sox’s lead to six.

The second-inning homer marked the 27th of the year for Martinez, putting him three above Los Angeles Angels’ Mike Trout for the MLB lead.
