(913) Detroit Tigers at (914) Kansas City Royals
(3%) KC. Off yesterday's loss at Pittsburgh, the Royals will be happy to return home. They're 45-30 record here ranks among the best in baseball. They'll also be happy to have Seth Lugo on the mound. Lugo is off another gem in his last start. Through seven shutout innings, he held the Yankees to just three hits. He struck out 10 without walking a batter. That gives him a 0.86 ERA his past three starts, all of those coming against contending teams. He's 2-0 with a 0.64 ERA in September and 16-8 with a 2.94 ERA on the season. He's also 3-0 with a 1.29 ERA in three career starts vs. the Tigers. Royals bounce back.
