While the Royals have struggled quite a bit in containing the opponents offense, the Royals are going to matchup nicely in this game with the starting pitching as Duffy will out pitch Happ. The downside is the Royals pen is suspect and will cost the Royals the game once the ball is turned over to them as the Royals bullpen is unable to contain the Yankees offense. Final Score, New York Yankees win 3-2.
