Ventura sturdy bridge to Royals’ lethal bullpen
After giving up just the 10th leadoff homer in World Series history, rookie Yordano Ventura did not allow it to faze him. Instead, the right-hander delivered 5 1/3 innings while limiting the Giants to two runs on eight hits to help the Royals earn a 7-2 win in Game 2 on Wednesday night.
