KC Royals pound Padres thanks to Cain’s big day

That was quite the historic day for the KC Royals against San Diego. Offensively, in a pitcher’s park. In a win. A dominating one. So… that was fun!

The KC Royals did something kind of fun on Saturday. And by that, I mean they completely snowed under an inferior team in the San Diego Padres.

The 14 hits were nice. The dozen runs pushed across were nicer. The five home runs and nine-run eighth inning were flabbergasting—in a good way—as the KC Royals cruised to a 12-6 win at Petco Park.

The faceless Padres lineup was paced by Jose Pirela, who was involved in five of the six runs pushed across by the home team.
