The Royals are in New York for the first time since April 2019, taking on the Yankees in a three-game set that takes off Tuesday night.
The opener looks like an uphill for the Royals, who are +240 against Yankees ace Gerrit Cole in a 6:05 pm first pitch. Brady Singer will get the ball for Kansas City.
Since coming to the American League in 2018, Cole is 3-0 against Kansas City, and he has given up just five earned runs in 19.1 innings.
