Royals vs. Giants Sunday gamethread
The last home game of the season.
The Royals desperately need to snap their six-game losing streak and salvage this series against the Giants. They currently lead the Twins by a half game for the final playoff spot, and one full game over the Tigers. The Twins play a doubleheader against the Red Sox with Pablo López against Nick Pivetta in game one, and Zebby Matthews against Kutter Crawford in game two. The Tigers are in Baltimore with Tyler Holton as an opener against Albert Suárez.
This game will have a terrific pitching matchup. Seth Lugo looks for his 17th win of the year for the Royals.
