AMERICAN LEAGUE GAME OF THE WEEK!
(MLB) Red Sox (BOS) vs. Royals (KAN),
Money Line: -141.00 Royals (KAN) (Home)
Result: Loss
At 8:10 ET, my AL. GOW is on the Kansas City Royals. Both these teams are hanging around. Boston is 6.5 games back of Baltimore and New York in the East. Kansas City is 5 games back of Cleveland and 4.5 behind Minnesota. It's unlikely that either will finish on top of their division. At 63-50, KC currently has the better chance of clinching a Wild Card spot. That's largely thanks to an impressive 36-22 record here at home. That's the most home victories in the American League. Only Philadelphia has more in all of baseball. Singer has a 2.20 ERA at home this season and he is 3-0 with a 1.29 ERA his past 3 starts overall. Returning to Boston from LA doesn't change that Paxton isn't what he once was. He has a 6.23 ERA his past 3 games and a 5.51 road ERA on the season. Play on KC.
