The Blue Jays have managed to control the season series so far, but with Richard on the mound the Blue Jays have struggled quite a bit. What else does not help the Blue Jays is Sparkman is a decent pitcher and that can easily help the Royals out in this game as the offense is able to get a hold of Richard and rock him and Sparkman shuts down the Blue Jays. Final Score, Kansas City Royals win 5-3.
