Its Wednesday, May 21 and the Royals (27-23) are in San Francisco to take on the Giants (29-20). Daniel Lynch is slated to take the mound for Kansas City against Logan Webb for San Francisco.

The Royals waited until the last moment to divulge their pitching plans for Wednesday’s series finale against the Giants at Oracle Park. They had plenty of options available to them. They brought Triple-A prospect Luinder Avila along on the taxi squad in case of an emergency — he was stretched out and could’ve started, if needed.

The Giants really needed that elite Webb in the rubber match against the Royals ahead of a nine-game, three-city road trip. If his newfound strikeout prowess wasn’t going to show up, his ability to induce weak contact and work late into games would work.
