After losing five straight games to the Cleveland Indians and the Detroit Tigers, the Kansas City Royals will try to salvage a disastrous home stand in their game Wednesday night with Detroit.
Jonathan Sanchez will take the mound for the Royals while the Tigers will run out Max Scherzer.
Sanchez lasted only 2.2 innings in his last start, giving up 5 home runs and 4 walks to the Indians on April 14. Scherzer has been inconsistent this season as well, lasting only 2.2 innings in his first start before throwing a gem in his second, striking out 11 batters in 6 innings against the Chicago White Sox.
Kansas City's offense has been stifled in their first two games against Detroit, although a lot of that has to do with All-World pitcher Justin Verlander, who gave up only 2 runs in a dominant 9 inning performance.
The 7:10 PM game will be broadcast on Fox Sports Kansas City.
