After losing seven consecutive games, they won the last four and are coming off a series sweep against the Minnesota Twins. Kansas City has a 3.87 ERA, a .242 batting average, a .310 on-base percentage, and 1.25 walks plus hits per inning pitched. Bobby Witt Jr. is the best player on the team with 192 hits, 118 runs, and 30 home runs.

Aaron Judge is the best player on the team with 161 hits, 109 runs and league-high 51 home runs.

 

Betting Trends

The Yankees are 8-1 SU in their last 9 home games against the Royals and 15-5 SU in their last 20 games against teams from the AL Central. New York has played over the total run line in 6 of their last 9 games overall, their last five home games and 5 of their last 6 games against teams from the AL while has played under in 4 of their last 6 games against Kansas City. The Royals are 4-1 SU in their last 5 games overall, 4-14 SU in their last 18 games against the Yankees, and 0-5 SU in their last 5 games on the road. Kansas City has played under the total run line in 5 of their last 6 games overall, 4 of their last 5 games against teams from the AL and 4 of their last 5 games played in September.

 

Prediction and Conclusion

The New York Yankees are on top of the AL East with only a 0.5 game advantage over the Baltimore Orioles. They are coming off a low-scoring series against the Cubs and will host the Royals in an important series for the final regular season standings. The Royals have won the last four games, which is quite impressive since they lost the previous seven. Kansas City has won only three of the last ten games against the Yankees and will try to add one with Brady Singer on the mound. The 28-year-old is 9-10 for the season, with a 3.35 ERA, 150 K, 158.1 IP, and 1.24 WHIP. The Yankees will go with Carlos Rodon, who is 14-9 for the season with a 4.19 ERA, 172 K, 152.1 IP, and 1.22 WHIP. Both pitchers are on top of their game, and given the fact that 4 of the last 6 games between the two have finished under the total run line, we go with under 8.5 runs tonight.
