The Kansas City Royals will take on the Minnesota Twins in the final game of their MLB series at Kauffman Stadium on Thursday (September 22) afternoon. The Royals have already clinched the series 2-0 but trail the season series 12-6.
The Royals beat the Twins 5-2 last night, taking their overall season record to 60-89. They have no chance of making the playoffs this season and have already been eliminated from their division. They will look to sweep away the Twins to save face and boost their morale.
The Twins have lost three games in a row and are in dire need of a win to keep their chances of clinching a wildcard spot alive.
They are 73-76 this season and sit 8.5 games behind the Seattle Mariners, who currently own the last wildcard spot in the American League. It will be a fight to the end. There are only 15 games left in the season, so the Twins need to keep winning to keep their playoff hopes alive.
"FINAL: Royals 5, Twins 2" - Royals
The Royals will start Jonathan Heasley on the mound. He has an ERA of 5.09, a 1.51 WHIP, and a 3-8 overall record. This will be his 19th start of the season and first against the Twins.

The Twins will give the ball to Josh Winder. He is 4-4 this season with a 1.26 WHIP. He has struggled on the hill this season and has been inconsistent with his pitching regime. Winder has registered three losses in a row. He hasn't dished out too many strikes in a game but will hope to give his team a much-needed win today.
