Kansas City
The Royals meant all business in Game 4. Ben Zobrist knocked a 2 run homer in the first inning and the Royals added on 2 more to put up a 5 spot on RA Dickey.
The Blue Jays scrambled through their bullpen, but it was for not as the Royals pounded out 14 runs.
Alcides Escobar finished 2 for 3 with 4 RBIs and Lorenzo Cain extended his post season hitting streak as he finished 2 for 3 with 2 RBIs. Both Zobrist and Rios homered in the win.

In hopes of avoiding having the series go back to Kansas City, the Royals will go with Edinson Volquez, who pitched a gem in Game 1.
Volquez finished Game 1 with a win as he allowed just 2 hits over 6.0 scoreless innings.
Toronto
Toronto’s dugout and on field players got a kick out of Cliff Pennington coming on in the 9th inning to pitch.
While it may have given them a bit of comic relief, at the end of the day it was the Royals who got the last laugh. Toronto is now just one game away from elimination and will need to win Game 5 at home and steal 2 road games if they hope to advance any further.

Toronto will go with Marco Estrada, who lost to Volquez in Game 1 inside Kauffman Stadium. Estrada finished with 3 runs on 6 hits in 5.1 innings of work. The Royals are tough match up for him as he is not a strike out pitcher.
OF Jose Bautista, who hit the go ahead 3 run home run in Game 5 of the ALDS is just 2 for 12 in the series. He has walked 6 times, but the Royals have made sure he doesn’t make a serious impact on the series.
