Pitching Matchup and Prediction

The Dodgers are sending ace right-hander Tyler Glasnow (6-5, 3.24 ERA) to the mound in this one. He will look to help them grab the series over the Royals and bounce back from his last outing against the New York Yankees. He allowed five runs over six innings of work but did strike out 12 batters. Kansas City is sending Brady Singer (4-3, 3.30 ERA) to counter Glasnow, setting up a good matchup.

Los Angeles needs a good outing from their ace pitcher but it won't be enough. Kansas City gets the big hit late in the game to get the win.

Royals 4, Dodgers 3

More

Starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto exited the game on Saturday after just two innings. He left due to tightness in his triceps and is likely heading for the injured list.

If Yamamoto is out for an extended amount of time, it'll be another addition to the long line of Los Angeles arms that are hurt.
