Here are some things to watch for in the KC Royals game tonight.
Jason Vargas Rebound
After cruising very easily throughout the beginning of the season, Jason Vargas ran into a hiccup against the New York Yankees in his last start.
Surrendering six runs in four innings, he basically doubling his ERA. The Yankees were all over his changeup and curveball.
He’ll have to establish his fastball tonight to help get his secondary pitches going. He’ll also have to keep the changeup down and keep Yankees hitters from lifting it. A simple flyball could doom you in Yankee Stadium.
