Kansas City is 19-36 on the road and has lost five of eight. The offense is #24 in runs scored, #21 in on-base percentage, while the pitching staff is #27 in team ERA (4.67). Daniel Lynch (4.52 ERA) takes the mound walking too many batters, especially on the road where he's allowed 25 free passes and 53 hits in 48 innings. The Royals are 18-39 on the road against winning teams, as well as 22-49 away from home versus a righty starter. Minnesota has a winning home record with an offense that is Top 10 in on-base percentage and slugging. Tyler Mahle has been an excellent addition to the pitching staff after coming over from the Reds. In his last four starts, he is 3-0 with a 3.38 ERA. Minnesota is 30-12 after allowing two runs or fewer in two straight games and the Twins have won eight of the last 10 versus K.C. Play Minnesota.
