The Royals didn't do themselves any favors in yesterday's match-up in Houston. They fall to 25-20 in the AL Central and move two full games back from first place. The gap between third and first is now 4.5 games. And with the Guardians and the ever-impressive Detroit Tigers on their heels, the path to first seems far off.
Kansas City lost 3–4 as they faced an MLB pitcher making his debut! The Astros’ dugout kept the rookie on the mound through five innings. The offense wasn’t the worst in history, but it wasn’t enough to secure the third game in the three-game series. The Astros take the win, 2–0, in the series.
Your St. Louis Cardinals visit Kansas City at 6:40 PM tomorrow to begin a three-game series. This series should be interesting, as both teams are about on par with one another as far as stats are concerned.
