Result: Loss
Play: Oakland Athletics
Rating: 10/10*
The Kansas City Royals are just 2-6 on the season, and they're running the risk of getting swept by the Oakland Athletics in this three-game set after back-to-back losses. I think they're in for another tough matchup Thursday night as they face Jesse Hahn (0-0, 3.00 ERA) on the mound. Hahn has allowed only five runs (three earned) in 11 1/3 innings in two career starts against KC, and he should get plenty of run support as the A's have averaged 4.11 runs per game this season. The Royals hand the ball to left-hander Jason Vargas (1-0, 1.50 ERA) who held the Astros to one run and six hits while striking out six in six innings on Friday, but I don't think he'll keep Oakland at bay quite as easily. The Athletics are 8-0 in the last eight meetings. Let's back Oakland at a great price.
