Yeah he looks bad. High fastball not playing at all today. Usually he gets a lot of whiffs on those, but it's getting crushed today.

Good to see the Royals finally playing the Indians tough.

Where is Caulfield? We need a post about how this is a trap series.

4-0 Royals after Benintendi homer

McKenzie doesn't have his fastball velocity today. Down 1 MPH on the fastball and hanging breaking pitches. So the Royals might have a shot.

Dozier homers. 2-0 Royals

He's been dreadful in general.

78th percentile sprint speed. So not too bad. He did look a little slow on that ball he scored on from first, but keep in mind that Cesar barely made it into 2nd by the time the throw got back into the infield.

Jose finally gets a day off. What's interesting is that Goodwin is DHing and not Eloy.

100 degree games at the old park sucked, but while this new one might be comfortable, it just doesn't feel like a baseball stadium. Had they made the old one have a retractable roof, they wouldn't have needed this new stadium so quickly.

Magic number down to 4.

Yeah that just means they're probably gonna get swept.

Royals will be lucky to take 1 game against Cleveland. They play like a AAA team against them.

How can we not figure out who is supposed to make the turn at 2B? We're 150 games in.

Ruiz is miles better than Wright.

And it still wasn't a homer in this park

Wow that should have been hit to the moon.

Mike Wright sucks, who knew?

The Diamondbacks have given them problems at home. We'd all be up in arms right now had we played the D'Backs as close as they have.

Houston just tied Arizona in the 8th.

Kopech's didn't throw as hard today, but his breaking stuff looked much better.

Leury!

Jose was way out of the baseline.

That was a strike

He makes everything look like a ball
