Lance Cpl. Timothy Michael Bell Jr., a nephew of Kansas City Royals manager Buddy Bell, was among the 14 Marines killed Wednesday by a roadside bomb in Iraq. There was a moment of silence before the Royals played the Red Sox at Fenway Park on Wednesday night.

"That was probably the most touching moment of silence I've stood through," Royals designated hitter Mike Sweeney said after Boston's 8-5 victory.

"It makes it harder to see the skipper, the rock of our team, with tears in his eyes," an emotional Sweeney said. "I ask everyone to pray for him and his family.

"We wanted to pull this one out for Skipper, with the pain he's going through," Sweeney said.
