Liam Hendriks takes the loss in spot-start

Royals pitcher Liam Hendriks made the spot-start and was pulled in the third inning in a loss to the Red Sox on Thursday. He allowed three runs -- two earned -- on four hits and two walks while striking out one over 2 1/3 innings of a 6-3 defeat.

Hendriks (1-2) owns a 5.06 ERA and a 1.24 WHIP over 26 2/3 innings of work. He could make another start Tuesday against the White Sox if Danny Duffy is unable to return from a shoulder injury.
