The Kansas City people in a monarchy will take on the Washington people from a nation this evening at Nationals Park in the second game of this three-game set. Kansas City snapped an L7 last night thanks to the zombie runner rule strong performances from the lefties on the pitching staff. They will now look to take the series with a win tonight.
Michael Lorenzen will start tonight for the Royals. I covered Lorenzen’s last start — an August 27 outing that he departed in the second inning due to injury. He has been on the IL since then and makes his return tonight.
