The Kansas City Royals look to turn their fortune around after dropping two straight games and five of their last seven assignments. The San Diego Padres, on the other hand, hope to capture their fifth win in six games. The Royals and Padres produced an entertaining, high-scoring ball game in the series opener which saw Jake Cronenworth ignited a pivotal 9-run eruption by San Diego in the 8th inning. The Royals tried to muster a rally of their own by scoring five runs in the 9th inning but their comeback ran out of fumes. At 31-29, the Padres continue to put pressure on the top-seeded Los Angeles Dodgers (36-23) in the race for the No.1 spot in the National League West standings. The Royals remain at No.2 in the American League Central with a 35-24 slate, four games below the division leader Cleveland Guardians 38-19.Pitchers Matchup: The Padres will be sending RHP Joe Musgrove (3.44, 5.66 ERA with 44 strikeouts) to take on Royals RHP Alec Marsh (4-2, 3.24 ER with 43 strikeouts).
