The Royals scored four runs in the bottom of the ninth to defeat the Padres 6-5 in the rain on Thursday afternoon.
Daniel Lynch IV is engaged in a competition for a starting role this spring and has impressed in his outings so far. He had a quick 1-2-3 first inning, but rain into trouble in the second, giving up three hits, including a two-run triple to Luis Arraez. The Padres put up three runs overall to take a 3-0 lead.
Michael Massey continued his hot hitting with a leadoff triple in the second off Yu Darvish, later scoring on an RBI groundout by Kyle Isbel.
