(MLB) Toronto vs. Kansas City,
Money Line: -131.00 Toronto (Away)
Result: Loss
Toronto at Kansas City 7:15 ET
Royals over Blue Jays- On paper this looks like a potential classic pitching dual as tonight's starters in Kansas City have a combined record of 18-2. The numbers are only getting better for Royals starter Danny Duffy (7-1, 2.98 ERA) who struck out a franchise and career high 16 batters with a no-hit bid into the eighth inning in a 3-0 win over Tampa Bay last time out. Toronto will start Aaron Sanchez (11-1, 2.71) who has won 10 straight decisions and is 7-0 on the road. Duffy despite his impressive stats is just 1-3 against the Blue Jays yielding 16 runs on 23 hits and 17 walks in 21 innings. Add that the Royals are 8-21 in their last 29. and the Jays are 20-8 their last 28 overall. Take TORONTO!
