It is June, and our Kansas City Royals are playing a series against the first place team in their division with something on the line. The Royals currently sit just four games back of the Cleveland Guardians, who have gotten off to an amazing start with the third-best record in baseball. They’ve done it against the second-easiest schedule while the Royals have played the third-easiest schedule, so this series could be a good test of how these two teams stand.
Kansas City Royals (36-25) vs. Cleveland Guardians (39-20) at Progressive Field, Cleveland, OH
Royals: 4.
