The Kansas City Royals take on the Seattle Mariners tonight in the third installment of this year’s Battle for Grass Creek. They split the first two games with the winning team plating six in each of them. A victory tonight would secure at least a split in this rare four-game series.
Kansas City will start Noah Cameron. In his first nine starts in the majors, Cameron has surpassed even the most optimistic expectations in terms of run prevention, posting a 2.79 ERA. That was mostly early on, however, as he has a 5.85 ERA across his last four starts while failing to complete the sixth inning after accomplishing that feat in each of his first five.
