The issue here has nothing to do with how good Giants pitchers hit in comparison to how good Royals pitchers hit.
The issue here is that Billy Butler (a middle of the order bat), comes out of the lineup for the pitcher. The Giants, as a National League team, are used to this. Their normal lineup is 8 hitters.
The Royals losing Butler is a HUGE advantage for the Giants. HUGE.
