Through three games, the Royals have held 3-1, 3-0, and 4-0 leads, the latter two being held heading into the 6th inning. They have 29 hits compared to Cleveland’s 23. They are 0-3 in those games.
Kansas City enters tonight’s matchup on a four-game losing streak, their first such streak of the season, and losers in six of their last eight games. They’ll send Danny Duffy to the mound looking to end that streak and avoid their first sweep of the season.
Duffy has been arguably the hottest pitcher in baseball thus far in 2021, having surrendered just two runs in 30 IP on two solo homers.
