00:00Today is game three of the three-game series. It is the rubber match game as Kansas City Royals and the Giants come into this game
00:07Both having won one of the first two games on the hill today for the Giants will be their ace Logan Webb
00:13Webb making start number 11 comes into this one
00:16He's one of the leaders in the league and starts innings pitched ERA and strikeouts
00:21Michael Garcia right-handed hitter
00:23Here's the 1-0 pitch and Garcia shoots it through the hole on the right side of base it into right field
00:28So Garcia is back at the top of the lineup and he continues to do what he has done
00:32And Garcia now has a seven-game hitting streak
00:35Bobby is two for eight with a double and an RBI against the Giants and he hits a ground ball left side and through
00:40So Webb's getting his ground balls
00:42But the Royals are finding the holes and they have two on with nobody out now the Royals top RBI man
00:47Vinny Pasquantino will come up and now Vinny is gonna drop one in the center field run
00:52That's gonna be in the throw from center field is cut off and Vinny Pasquantino gives the Royals a 1-0 lead
00:59That's a high fastball that's missed so far
01:01He's missing now at some point Webb will settle in the Royals have got to come through here get greedy
01:07How's it time you get greedy now Salvador Perez bats and he's
01:11Struck him out swinging with a low changeup. Here's Mark Cano
01:14Nothing easy about this one, but he's got two outs now poor Seymour for a payoff
01:21And this is a pitch that he's using more to get strikeouts with so now waters switch hitter batting left-handed
01:26Swing and a miss he struck him out after three straight hits he strikes out three in a row
01:31Daniel Lynch the fourth is on the mound he makes his first start of the season after his first 20 appearances came out of the bullpen
01:37She faces Elliott Ramos a right-handed hitter
01:40And three pitches and he takes care of Ramos in the bottom of the first
01:45There's the walk to Chapman Chapman with two down running at on contact easily made it over the third so Flores gets the hit
01:52The Giants have an opportunity for Willie Adamas now
01:57Left field
01:58Cana is there and he's got it so the Giants strand two and at the end of one the Royals lead 1-0
02:04One ounce single for Michael Massey. It's already four hits today for the Royals all of them singles
02:09And here comes Kyle Isbell. So Massey gets a stolen base, and that's the Royals first
02:15They had been 0 for 3 in the series
02:17And now Isbell lines it to right field
02:20And Massey will be held
02:23But that was a good read by Isbell
02:25Yastrzemski threw all the way to the plate and just gives Isbell second base
02:30The runner going to third had already been held up a very rare instance of poor fundamentals out there by Yaz
02:37Garcia's single to open the game then scored the game's only run at this point
02:42Line base hit left field
02:43Massey scores
02:45Isbell is held at third and the Royals lead 2-0
02:48Nice he waited for a good hitters count he got exactly what he wanted Webb is up in the zone
02:53That's good hitting right there and they have six hits already against Logan Webb
02:57Well, that's rare that he gives up six hits in seven innings and here
03:00He's given up six hits in an inning and two thirds
03:03Witt smacks it into right field it hangs up for Yastrzemski makes the catch
03:07Isbell is back to third he tags up he's in his scores with a slide
03:11A sacrifice line out for bobby witt jr. And it's 3-0 royals in the top of the second inning
03:16Vinny drove in a run in the first inning there he goes the pitch
03:20Straight three called in the inside corner with the fastball but two more runs on three more hits
03:25Matt chapman leads off for the giants against the right-handed reliever bollin
03:30Chapman hits a high
03:33Power and drive
03:35It is out of here
03:38What a day off does
03:40Well, it makes you see hanging sliders with clarity since ninth of the year
03:45This had whack me written all over it
03:47It's kind of floated up middle end above the thigh
03:50The giants are on the board three to one royals
03:53And izzy is on on an e3 so he's on for the second time today
03:59Webb's got it
04:00Double clutch and now he'll go to first and they just got him. I don't think he had a grip on the ball
04:05That's my call or he didn't think someone was going to get to the bag in time
04:09It's just been one of those days nothing has come easy for him
04:12Izzy's at second base with one down for bobby witt jr. Let's see if bobby can come through he's already had a big day
04:17Do and the center field that's going to be down and here comes kyle is bell
04:23Junior digs for second and that is his second rbi of the day
04:27And now the royals have scored in three of four innings against web. Oh, yeah
04:31Look at the inside out swing very nicely done this royals offense is breaking out today now
04:36Now Vinny Pasquantino swing and a miss he got him Pasquantino goes down out number two
04:42That's the fifth strikeout for logan webb and it'll be salvador perez to try to keep it rolling
04:48Go ball well hit deep part of the ballpark turning
04:52Go on salvi hits a two-run opposite field home run there
04:57It is three of the year, but more importantly
05:02276 for his career and that moves him into fifth place all time for a catcher in american league history
05:10Whoa the captain struck and it was a beauty opposite field not a lot of right-handers could go that way
05:16But that's some kind of needed power right there now
05:19Now that gives him a five-run lead and a beautiful thing off one of the best pitchers in the national league
05:24And it bounces this one to
05:26Adamus I think we've seen the last of logan webb not his day and just
05:31Extremely unusual for webb to have a game like this especially at home
05:36And now stephen cruz comes on to start with a clean fourth inning and he's already gotten one out recorded and he'll face
05:42switch hitting patrick bailey their catcher batting left-handed
05:46Bailey hits one well
05:48Right center field
05:50Right center field
05:52It is
05:54Out of here
05:55That's his first of the year
05:57The ballpark today. I mean it doesn't usually play like this when you get a day where the wind is not real loud
06:02But when you do have really pushes it out to center Patrick Pettis says thank you very much brother nature
06:07And that must feel good his first home run
06:09So another opportunity for the Giants here that they have not been short on opportunity today
06:14And so now the bases are loaded
06:16And so lee will be the runner at first
06:18Ramos at second
06:20Wade at third the bases are loaded for the Giants and a power threat and wilmer flores and with one swing he could tie this game
06:28Line center field
06:29Isbell is there with a sliding play oh man oh man what a jump okay he got out of it leadoff double
06:37It's waters second hit of the afternoon and the team's 11th of the game base hit left field
06:43First and third nobody out and the royals have 12 hits love it and they're runners on the corners with nobody out for michael massey
06:51Line sharply into left field that's a base hit waters darts home from third and the royals have their seventh run of the game
06:58An opposite field rbi single for michael massey and it's seven to two royals in the top of the fifth three straight hits to start the inning
07:06Against spencer bibbins and that's the third time the royals have done that in this game
07:12This from the bottom of the lineup which has been very productive today
07:16And now bunted
07:18And the play is to first so keep the line moving and isbell who's already had a good day with two runs scored
07:24It's two runners in scoring position with the top of the order coming up
07:28Garcia lifts it in a left center field ramos angles back into the cap reaches out makes the grab
07:33Firmin tags up from third he's in to score easily another run for the royals and it's eight to two in the top of the fifth inning
07:41And fitzgerald's got a two-ounce single that is the giants first base runner since the fourth inning for switch hitting catcher patrick bailey
07:50off the end of the bat
07:52And massey will play it to first and on hell serpa has a scoreless bottom of the eight here's michael massey two on two out
07:59It's a good job sharply up the middle in a base hit
08:05Here's the throw home
08:09And they got them
08:10Salvador Perez trying to score from second in jungle league throws them out
08:15It's a leadoff hit for Wade who's on base for a third time today
08:18Now back to the top of the lineup and Elliott ramos ramos a high drive to left
08:23It is out of here put a damper on the era all of the giants runs have been via the home run
08:33Ramos with a two-run big fly that was really
08:36Impressive off his battered 104 and a soaring shot into left center if you're lucas ursay
08:43You're gonna give up your first home run of the season
08:45It might as well be in a game in which your team was leading by six plenty of cushion willie adamez comes to the plate
08:52Runner on first two ounce royals up eight to four
08:55Swung on and missed strike three got him with a slider down and away
08:59Ball game the royals break out the bats in the bay and beat the giants eight to four to take the series in san francisco
