Rotation # 924
Royals -1.5 runs over Phillies +140 (loss)
Lugo/Allard
Lugo/Allard
Last night, the Royals couldn’t crack the pitching of Ranger Suarez and were the victims of a few unfortunate bounces that put the game out of reach for them before it snowballed out of control. Today, Kansas City gets the luxury of facing Kolby Allard, who has struggled as a big-league pitcher. Kansas City hits well at home, and we should take advantage of the weather, which we will not see until next summer. The Royals have a clear pitching edge and should win the rubber match. Take the Royals run line -1.5 runs +140.
