Royals Drop 8-5 Decision to Giants
The San Francisco Giants defeated the Kansas City Royals by the score of 8-5, with the biggest share of the credit going to third baseman Nolan Arenado. Arenado went 3 for 4 with 2 home runs for the Giants on the day. The win went to Chet Greene in relief. His record improves to 4-1. Mike Long took the loss. Pat Henderson wrapped it up, recording his 17th save.

Bradley Zimmer, who finished 4th in the AL in triples with 7 in 2021, helped out the San Francisco cause in the bottom of the sixth inning with a run-scoring double. For the game, the right fielder was 2 for 4 with a double and a walk.

"Every time you put a 'W' on the board is always good," said Arenado.

The National League West Division-leading Giants have a record of 32-16.
