After facing the minimum through five, Royals blitz him with doubles to take season series opener
Jose Quintana was sailing along, peaceful and calm. Suddenly, the sixth inning went wrong.
Holding the slimmest of margins with aplomb through five, Quintana went from facing the minimum to being down 3-1 in a flash.
With one out, Omar Infante started the rally innocuously with a double. Paulo Orlando then slashed a double to right center to tie the game, and while Tyler Saladino saved a run with a diving stop on Alcides Escobar's infield single, it didn't matter.
