The Kansas City Royals will host the Minnesota Twins at the Kauffman Stadium on Wednesday (September 21) in MLB action.
The Royals pulled off a massive upset in the first game of the series. The Twins still have a lot riding on this series, and if results don’t go their way, a playoff berth will slip from their grasp.

The Royals defied all odds last time out, beating the Twins 5-4. No one gave them a chance in the contest and almost wrote them off the entire series, as the Royals have been poor all campaign.
Back-to-back home games should spur them on for better performances and carry on their new-found good form. Their home record overall has been quite poor, as they have gone 35-41 at home, but their last result should give them a lot of confidence.
Zack Greinke and Scott Barlow performed admirably for the Royals, as they racked up three strikeouts apiece in their last game. Drew Waters is set to miss out for the Royals due to injury, though.
The Twins, meanwhile, endured a surprise loss against the Royals last time out. They have been quite strong this season, with an overall record of 73-75. They are in the running for the wildcard berth in the AL Central, as they are only three wins behind the White Sox in second.
The Twins were let down by their star man Luis Arraez, who failed to get a single hit or run in their last game. Carlos Correa played well, though, registering three hits. Trevor Megill and Kyle Garlick are set to miss out for the Twins due to injury.
