The Kansas City Royals gun for their seventh straight win in Sunday’s series finale with the Houston Astros at Kaufmann Stadium.
The Royals improved to .500 with their sixth straight victory on Saturday against the Astros, 2-0. Once again, Kansas City banked on their pitching to neutralize Houston’s sluggers. The Royals are pitching a ridiculous 1.72 ERA and .166 OBA in their last five games, striking fears into the hearts of their last three opponents.
For the second consecutive game, the Astros could not score a run against the Royals’ impeccable pitching and field defense. Houston is batting .232 with 92 runs this season, but they could not figure out how to drive a run against the Royals so far.

Our Kansas City Royals vs Houston Astros Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Royals score another sweep at the expense of the Astros.
I thought the Astros had the best opportunity to win the series when they fielded starter Framber Valdez. However, the Royals still scored two runs against the lefty and let their pitching do the rest in Game 2. Houston is in for another long night because they are facing Kris Bubic, who already has three shutouts this season. Bubic blanked the Rockies over seven innings in a 4-3 win over the Colorado Rockies on April 22. He will match up against Hunter Brown, who is also on a three-game shutout streak. This is an intriguing matchup on the mound on Sunday, with the two hurlers oozing with confidence right now. But with the Astros still producing a measly 3.2 runs per game over their last five games, I still think the Royals, 10-4 at home, will hack out a close win. Our betting prediction for the Kansas City Royals vs. the Houston Astros: The Royals will win.
