The last two games showed that the Kansas City Royals, despite a negative return at 33-39 this season, can pack a punch against any team. But the Yankees are also not playing as good as they can be. The pitchers are not up to the mark on a consistent basis, while the offensive game can be better. However, the Yankees remain favorite to win this game.
