Game Preview
The Kansas City Royals, significantly improved from their previous season, are on the brink of securing a .500 record or better. They’ll attempt to edge closer to this milestone when they face the New York Yankees on Wednesday.
At 80-66, the Royals are just two victories shy of ensuring their first winning season since their 2015 World Series triumph. Despite a heavy loss to the Yankees on Monday, Kansas City bounced back with a resounding 5-0 win on Tuesday, thanks to Seth Lugo’s standout ten-strikeout performance over seven innings.
This win keeps them within 3 1/2 games of the AL Central-leading Cleveland Guardians and firmly in the second American League wild-card spot.
Salvador Perez was instrumental in Tuesday’s victory, driving in two runs and hitting the 100 RBI mark for the second time in his career. The Royals’ offense was on point, racking up 11 hits to mark their third double-digit hit game in six outings.
On the other hand, the Yankees struggled offensively, tying a season-low with just three hits and suffering their eighth shutout loss of the season. Despite fielding a strong lineup, the Yankees floundered, with key players like Aaron Judge continuing a slump.
New York’s lead in the AL East has dwindled to a half-game over the Baltimore Orioles, adding pressure as they look to Luis Gil (13-6, 3.24 ERA) to stabilize the rotation. Gil is coming off a strong outing against the Cubs, where he allowed just one hit over six scoreless innings.
Cole Ragans (11-9, 3.33 ERA) will start for the Royals, aiming to replicate his recent scoreless performance against the Minnesota Twins.
This game not only represents a chance for the Royals to edge closer to a winning season but also for the Yankees to regain their footing in the AL East race.
