Kansas City Royals and the Baltimore Orioles will lock horns anew in Saturday’s Game 2 of their three-game series at Kaufmann Stadium.
The Royals snapped their two-game skid with an 8-2 win over the Orioles. Kansas City are 2-3 in their last five games, losing twice to the Milwaukee Brewers. Kansas City is in the middle of the pack in pitching and batting. The Royals are pitching 3.08 with 1.26 WHIP and .229 BAA while batting .225 with 31 runs. They tap veteran Michael Wacha to start on Saturday. Wacha gave up one run in 4.1 innings in his season debut on March 31, which resulted in a 1-4 loss to the Cleveland Guardians.
The Orioles have now lost their last three and four of their last five assignments. Friday’s loss exposed the Birds’ glaring weakness in their pitching, as they currently own the third-worst ERA in MLB at 5.22. The fact that Baltimore has conceded 8 runs in the last two games makes them vulnerable against the Royals, who average 4.4 runs after a win.
