The Royals enter the final series of their road trip as they take on the Tigers for the first time this year after a disappointing series in New York. The Royals offense has gotten off to a slow start, and despite having the best ERA in the American League, come into the game 8-11. They hope to see the bats come back alive and start a massive series with a much needed win.
Michael Lorenzen took the mound for the Royals in what was his fourth start of the year and entered the game posting a 3.17 ERA.
