Cincinnati at Kansas City

The Kansas City Royals will be glad to get home, as over the past several years this young team just hasn't responded on the road. They have been 3-15 in their last 18 games on the road. They are a much different team at home, where they have played .500 on the season. They led the majors last year against left-hand pitching. In interleague play, they are 12-2 against southpaws in their last 14, and are averaging close to a half of a run more against lefties than righties on the season. The Reds have been one of the worst interleague road teams at 12-25 over their last 37, and they are just 3-8 in their last 11 on the road against a right-hand starter. I’m going with the Royals here.
