The New York Yankees and the Kansas City Royals are all set for Wednesday’s crucial Game 3 at Kaufmann Stadium with the winner getting a 2-1 edge in this best-of-five ALDS series. After losing to the Yankees in a back-and-forth match, 6-5, in Game 1, the Royals came back strong by taking a 4-2 win in Game 2, leveling the series at 1-1. Salvador Perez hit a solo homer in the fourth inning, sparking a four-run outburst. Starter Cole Ragans only lasted four innings, giving up one earned run and three hits. Fortunately for the Royals, their bullpen stepped up, as Angel Zerpa, John Schrieber, and Kris Bublic shut out the Yankees through the eighth inning. Despite surrendering a solo home run by Jazz Chrisholm Jr., closer Lucas Erberg kept cool and recorded the game's last three outs.

Our Kansas City Royals vs New York Yankees Prediction

The Royals have been bad at home recently, losing their last six games at Kauffman Stadium. Meanwhile, the Yankees have performed exceptionally well on the road this season. In their last six games on the road, the Yankees are 5-1. They are also 8-3 in their last 11 road games against Kansas City. The Yankees will start Clarke Schmidt, who has allowed seven runs in his last two starts but has won the previous two against the Royals. Royals starter Seth Lugo will be a challenge for the Yankees after blanking them for seven innings on September 10. In the end, I still believe New York will demonstrate why they are a great road team this season. Possessing a lineup of heavy hitters, the Yankees will find ways to put scores on the board while applying pressure on the Royals bullpen. Our betting prediction for Kansas City Royals vs. New York Yankees: Back the Yankees to win, -115, at BetMGM.
