The Kansas City Royals will step into the final game of their series with the Cleveland Guardians looking to secure a 4-0 series sweep and, more importantly, the solo No.1 spot in the AL Central standings. The Royals have kept on rolling as they captured their seventh win in their last ten games after topping the Guardians 6-1 on Tuesday. Kansas City (75-58) will get a chance to grab the solo lead in the AL Central, provided that they beat Cleveland (75-58) for the fourth consecutive time on Wednesday. After lording over at the top of the AL Central for most of the 2024 season, the Guardians are in danger of conceding the No.1 spot in their division with another loss to the Royals in Game 4. In the past ten games, the Guardians averaged just 3.8 runs per game while posting a dismal .189 batting average. Cleveland has also surrendered almost 5.0 earned over their last ten games, further compounding their problems.
