Hunter Pence doubles and moves to third on a wild pitch to start the top of the fourth inning. With his home run earlier in the game, Pence now owns half a cycle. Kauffman Stadium is a great triples park, so a cycle seems a real possibility.
Brandon Belt follows with a walk to give the Giants a big threat in the inning.
The Giants lead the Royals 3-0.
Update: Michael Morse singles to center, driving in Pence, and the Giants extend their lead to 4-0. James Shields is out of the game.
Update: Relief pitcher Danny Duffy faces pinch-hitter Juan Perez, and Perez sacrifices the runners to second and third. One out.
Update: Brandon Crawford walks to load the bases.
Update: Duffy walks Gregor Blanco, and the Giants lead 5-0.
Update: Duffy strikes out Joe Panik for the second out.
Update: Buster Posey flies out to right to end the inning. The Royals hole gets deeper as the Giants lead 5-0.
