The Kansas City Royals will do battle with the Minnesota Twins this evening at Kauffman Stadium. Having won the first two games of this four-game set, Kansas City could secure a series victory if they prevail tonight.
Seth Lugo will start tonight for the Royals. Though he has a 3.27 ERA across his two starts so far, it’s hard to say that he’s been pitching well. He has struck out just six batters while walking four across 11 innings. 51.5% of balls in play against him have been hard hit, while just 39.4% of them have been on the ground.
