The Kansas City Royals (1-2) and the Baltimore Orioles (2-1) showed how frightening their offense can be in their previous series. Now heading into their series opener on Monday, 5:35 US EST, it's interesting whether we will see another scoring barrage at Oriole Park in Camden Yards.
Team Form:
Royals: After managing to score only two runs in the first two games, Kansas sluggers came alive in the series finale, belting five homers en route to an 11-0 shutout over the Minnesota Twins.
Orioles: Baltimore, on the other hand, enjoyed a scoring frenzy in the first two games of their series against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. They opened the season with an 11-3 win and one-upped it in the second game with a 13-4 demolition. In the third game, however, the Oriole's offense hit the wall as they scored a single run in a 4-1 loss.
Pitchers Matchup:
Royals: RHP Michael Wacha (14-4) with 3.22 ERA and 124 Strikeouts in 2023.
Orioles: Dean Kremer (13-5) with 4.12 ERA and 157 Strikeouts in 2023.
