The Royals host the Guardians with Michael Wacha (4-6, 4.07 ERA and 1.22 WHIP) for the Royals and Ben Lively (7-3, 3.03 ERA, and 1.16 WHIP) for the Guardians taking the mounds to start the series. Wacha hasn't allowed more than 2 runs in his last 6 appearances. Lively has been the Guardians' best starting pitcher this season. From an offensive point of view, the Royals have been the worst-hitting team in baseball, hitting only .188 and tied for the lowest runs, 35, in the last 15 days. However, they managed to go 5-8 in that span thanks to a 6th-best 3.44 ERA. The Guardians have had the 13th-best ERA with 3.94, while their hitting has been the opposite of the Royals; being 7th in the league with a .274 BA and 9th best in runs scored with 62. However, given how well both teams have pitched and how bad the Royals have been offensively, expect the score to go under the high total.
