Averaging at least six runs per game against left-handed starters this season, the Los Angeles Angels are looking like a sharp play to win on the road against the Kansas City Royals in Game 3.
Momentum: The Los Angeles Angels returned to the winner’s circle after topping the Toronto Blue Jays 7-3 in the series finale on Wednesday. The win snapped the Angels’ four-game losing streak and bumped up their record to 12-14, third in the American League West
The Kansas City Royals are 1-9 in their last 10 games. After edging the Baltimore Orioles 6-5 in Game 2, Kansas City crashed back to earth following a 6-8 setback in Game 3.
Starting Pitchers: Angels LHP Yusei Kikuchi (0-2, 5.63 ERA) vs. Royals LHP Noah Cameron (1-1, 5.40 ERA)
Hot on the Board: The total has been set at over/under 8.5 runs in Game 3 despite featuring two struggling lefty pitchers. The Royals are slight home favorites at -115 and +175 on the -1.5 run line. The Angels are -105 underdogs and -210 with +1.5-run cushion on the spread line.

Our Kansas City Royals vs Los Angeles Angels Prediction
Fearless Forecast: the Angels stifles the Royals 3-2
I am taking the Angels to steal another game on the road. After two consecutive games with four earned runs, Yusei Kikuchi delivered his best game of the season by pitching six scoreless innings in a 1-4 loss to the Padres on April 18. Kikuchi has an opportunity to sustain this form when he pitches against a team he dominated in the past. The Japanese allowed a total of four earned runs in 18 innings across his last three starts against the Royals, all of which were wins.
On the other hand, Noah Cameron hopes to regain his confidence after allowing five earned runs in each of his last two starts. Cameron also squandered three earned runs in his lone start against the Angels in September last year.
The Angels are in a solid spot to steal another road win here, especially if Kikuchi delivers another strong performance on the mound. I also don’t have much trust in the Royals’ offense in this particular game, mainly because they have struggled against left-handed pitchers this season. The Royals are batting .209 with 2.4 runs per game against lefties, while the Angels are averaging 6.3 runs per game on a .236 BA against these pitchers.
Our betting prediction for the Los Angeles Angels vs. the Kansas City Royals: the Angels will win.
