Bullpen gives up one hit and three walks in seven innings of magnificent pitching.
In an extra inning affair that at times felt unlikely to ever end, the Royals' offense sputtered until the 13th inning, leaving them to rely upon a strong outing from Edinson Volquez, a minor miracle in the ninth, and seven innings of shutdown pitching from the bullpen to preserve the chance for victory.
For the first eight innings, the Royals struggled to mount much of an offensive attack. Aside from a first inning in which Lorenzo Cain (hit-by-pitch) and Eric Hosmer (single) reached with two outs, the Royals did not put more than a single runner aboard in any inning until the eighth.
