Schule's MLB AFTERNOON EXECUTIONER - **SIZZLIN' 14-5 L19 MLB**
(MLB) Baltimore vs. Kansas City, 04/24/2016 10:15 AM, Score: 1 - 6
Money Line: -144.00 Kansas City (Home)
Result: Win
This is an 8* play on the Kansas City Royals.

The Royals host Baltimore in the rubber match of a three game series in Kansas City Sunday, and this looks like a good spot to back the defending champs.

Yordano Ventura will toe the rubber for the Royals, and he's been sharp so far in 2016. Ventura (1-0, 2.81 ERA) allowed two runs on six hits, striking out five in five innings in a win over Detroit his last time out. He hasn't had any problem shutting down the Orioles, with a record of 3-1 with a 2.03 ERA in four starts versus Baltimore over the last three years.

The Orioles hand the ball to Mike Wright, who is coming off a loss. Wright (1-1, 5.73 ERA) allowed three runs on six hits and three walks over six innings in a 4-3 loss to Toronto his last time out. He faced the Royals once last year, surrendering four runs on five hits, including a pair of home runs in a loss.

Wright was 1-3 with a 6.00 ERA in four starts on the road last season.

Take KC.
