In their recent game against the Kansas City Royals, the San Francisco Giants suffered an 8-4 defeat, marking a disappointing end to their homestand. The loss was particularly tough for ace pitcher Logan Webb, who allowed 10 hits and was chased out in the fourth inning, leaving the Giants unable to extend their winning record. Despite home runs from Matt Chapman, Patrick Bailey, and Heliot Ramos, the Royals' consistent hits and a notable performance from Salvador Perez proved too much for the Giants, who will next face a challenging nine-game road trip.
Longtime catcher Salvador Perez, playing first base for the Royals, hit a two-run home run in a three-run fourth inning that chased Webb.
Webb gave up 10 hits in the first four innings, his highest total of the season, with his record falling to 5-4.
It was Webb's shortest outing of the season - he went five innings three times and it came on a day when the bullpen was depleted.
The Giants had solo home runs from Matt Chapman in the third inning... and Patrick Bailey in the fourth, his first, before a home crowd of 29,064.
