The Metropolitans of Queens will take on the Royalty of East Kansas City this evening at Kauffman Stadium. Kansas City has won four straight games, twice as many as their longest winning streak of the season prior to this one. They will look to extend that streak to five games, as well as to win consecutive series for the first time this year.
Cole Ragans draws the start for the home side. Ragans has made just one start for the Royals since being acquired in the Aroldis Chapman deal, tossing five innings of one-run ball against Tampa Bay a few weeks ago.
