Greinke's streak ends but Royals cruise (AP) (sports.yahoo.com)

Zack Greinke gave up an earned run for the first time in 43 innings, but Billy Butler backed him up with two homers and the Kansas City Royals had 11 extra-base hits in an 11-3 rout of the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday night. Vernon Wells' RBI single with two outs in the first produced the first earned run off Greinke (5-0) since last September, a span of six starts.
