KANSAS CITY, Oct 29 — San Francisco Giants pitcher Jake Peavy suffered through one of the worst innings of his long career in the 10-0 loss in yesterday's Game Six of the World Series, blaming a crazy run of bad luck.

Peavy, a 13-year veteran and former Cy Young winner, said he was happy with his pitching despite yielding five runs on five hits in a seven-run second inning that ruined San Francisco's hopes of clinching the World Series.

“I don't know if I've ever been through one of those innings, to be honest with you,” said Peavy.

“It seemed like we couldn't catch a break.

“You break three bats and don't get an out on any of them,” he lamented. “It just wasn't my night, that inning.”

The Royals gave the Kauffman Stadium crowd a rollicking good time by stringing together eight hits in the inning on their way to a do-or-die victory that tied up the series at 3-3 and set up a climactic Game Seven at the same ballpark today.

The Giants are seeking their third World Series crown in five years, while the Royals are going for their first title in 29 years.

Peavy was still shaking his head in disbelef the clubhouse over the way the Kansas City rally unfolded.

“I felt really good, we threw the ball where we wanted to throw it. It was just a frustrating inning,” he said.

“I threw a changeup to (Alex) Gordon, broke his bat and he placed it perfect,” Peavy said about a soft single to center.

“Threw a cutter in to (Mike) Moustakas and broke his bat and the ball went rolling right over the bag just out of reach and stopped rolling by the time (right-fielder Hunter) Pence picked it up.

“(Alcides) Escobar, he broke his bat and hit the ball toward first, a perfect ball, you couldn't roll it out there any better.”

That slow roller with men on second and third went for a single but might have produced an out at first.

But Peavy called for first baseman Brandon Belt to look home, even though the baserunner at third was not going for the plate.

Second baseman Joe Panik said the Giants would just turn the page and come out battling in the winner-takes-all Game Seven.

“It's just one of those days. You got to flush it, and come back tomorrow,” he said. “Tomorrow's a new day.” — Reuters
