Giants face Royals in re-run of 2014 World Series

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The San Francisco Giants and the Kansas City Royals meet for the first time since their epic 2014 World Series.

The Giants open a two-game interleague series Tuesday at Kauffman Stadium. Giants right-hander Matt Cain and Royals right-hander Jason Hammel are the pitching probables for the first game.

The Giants won the 2014 World Series in seven games. The series ended with the Royals stranding Alex Gordon at third base when Salvador Perez popped up foul to Pablo Sandoval for the final out.
