Philadelphia's road woes continued on Friday with a 5-1 loss to the lowly Royals and the Phillies managed only four hits. Philly is 1-9 in Zach Eflin's last 10 road starts and 20-44 its last 64 interleague road games and 16-35 its last 51 road games overall. Kansas City is 16-5 its last 21 home games against teams with losing road records. Eflin has a 5.21 ERA away from home this season with a .296 opponent batting average. Brad Keller started the season with four straight quality starts before a couple rough outings, but he allowed just two runs in 5 1/3 innings his last time out at Detroit. Opposing hitters are batting just .182 versus Keller at home. Play the Royals.
