Kansas City Royals (7-16) and Baltimore Orioles (11-12) will meet in Game 2 of this four-game series on Tuesday night at Kauffman Stadium. The Royals lost 5-7 in extra innings to the Orioles, with Leody Taveras hitting a grand slam in the 12th inning for the visitors. It was a disappointing night for the Royals, who stranded 16 runners and failed to capitalize on three bases-loaded situations. They’ll be eager to post an improved performance tonight.
Baltimore Orioles, on the other hand, will be keen to build on their impressive performance on Monday night. The win against the Royals helped them avoid a sixth defeat in seven matches while extending the host’s losing streak to eight matches. They showed attacking improvement in Game 1, having scored just 22 runs in their last six contest before the Monday night contest. It was generally a morale-boosting performance.

Our Kansas City Royals vs Baltimore Orioles Prediction
The Royals are the favorites at -135 odds. They’ll certainly feel the pressure to end their eight-game slide and improve their standings in the AL Central. Kansas City will hand the usually dependable Chris Bubic his fourth start this season, with a 2-1 record and a 3.97 ERA. The Orioles, meanwhile, will start Shane Baz, who is 0-2 with a 4.91 ERA this season. These stats clearly favor the Royals to end the skid. With Bubic on the mound, we don’t expect the Orioles to score as many runs as they did on Monday. Let’s also note that the hosts aren’t excelling offensively this year, averaging 3.3 runs per game, which is last in baseball. Still, their starting pitcher should make all the difference tonight.
Our prediction for Kansas City Royals vs Baltimore Orioles: Under 9.5 runs.
