You’re probably aware at this point that the Royals are more than 60% through with their season and have yet to complete a series sweep. On the other hand, they have been swept a whopping nine times. What you may not realize is that they also haven’t won three consecutive games in any other configuration to this point. They will attempt to accomplish both feats today.
On the mound for KC will be Ryan Yarbrough. Yarbrough was something of an afterthought as a free agent signing this past off-season but he’s been quite serviceable as a swing man for the Royals.
