The Royals are in a funk, having lost eight of their last 10 while being held to two runs or less in seven of those 10 games. Cleveland has won four straight coming into today, with all four wins coming by at least 4 runs. The issue could be the pitching, as Anderson has not done well, posting a 9.64 ERA, but Kennedy has just a 4.15 ERA for KC. Anderson’s numbers shouldn’t be as bad today with KC struggling at the plate and Cleveland will find a way to provide some run support. Look for the Indians to find a way to win at home.
