The Royals took two out of three against their in-state rivals at Busch Stadium last week, and will now host the defending World Champions with the benefit of their full hitting lineup. During NL play, Ned Yost rotated Eric Hosmer and Billy Butler at first base, while at home he'll be able to play both against St. Louis. Not that hitting pitchers crippled the Royals - their staff has contributed four hits at the plate this season.
