“Underdog Lugo Claims Victory: How He Outshone Kremer in a Thrilling Royals Showdown!”
The Royals are not faring better than the Orioles. The good news for them is that their division isn’t nearly the bloodbath that the East is – despite having three teams make it last season. Each year it seems like any team in the AL East could win the World Series while each team in the AL Central is likely to be a lone representative – except the White Sox. In any case, the team started the season with a 2-4 record, and believe it or not, they are actually in first place in the division because every team has just two wins. Kansas City’s problem has been the hitting⦠or lack thereof. They are currently batting just .213 for the season and only have scored 23 runs and hit four homers. Averaging 3.8 runs per game isn’t terrible over the course of the season, but 11 of those runs have come in one game, so really they are averaging about two runs per game minus the outlier. The pitching has been pretty solid though. Seth Lugo, a guy we raked in cash on last season is taking the hill today. Lugo was fine in his opener with five innings of work and three earned runs on four hits. He did give up three walks. He was dominant last year holding opponents consistently to under three runs in a game. The Orioles have been pretty good against him though, hitting for a .279 batting average.Â
