In its half of the sixth, Kansas City added another run when Pasquantino drove in Bobby Witt Jr. The homer was Pasquantino's sixth of the season. Clarke struck out two in the sixth inning with the Royals holding a 1-0 lead after Pasquantino's fourth-inning, solo home run. Taylor Clarke, Aroldis Chapman, Amir Garrett and Josh Staumont each pitched an inning in relief. He came out after just 44 pitches - a coach's decision, via the Kansas City Star - but the bullpen maintained the club's first shutout since last Sept. Greinke (1-4) delivered his best outing of the season, striking out three with three hits and no walks, en route to his first win since Aug. May 4 - Zack Greinke pitched five scoreless innings for his first win of the season, Vinnie Pasquantino went 3-for-4 with three RBIs and a home run, and the Kansas City Royals evened up their home series against the Baltimore Orioles with a 6-0 win on Wednesday.
