Pitchers: Slowey vs Greinke
“I still would like for Zack (Greinke) and (Luke) Hochevar to get some run support,” the Royals’ said after picking up his fifth straight win in Sunday’s 7-2 victory over Detroit. “They don’t need to waste it all on me.” Reigning AL batting champion is batting .481 with five RBIs against Kansas City this season, but is 6 for 29 lifetime against Greinke. Morneau, the 2006 AL MVP has fared worse against him, going 5 for 26. Slowey yielded a run and five hits over seven innings Wednesday against the Mariners, but didn’t get a decision in the Twins’ 2-1 loss in 10 innings. “Slowey was tough,” Seattle manager Don Wakamatsu said. “He threw cutters to both sides of the plate, and he was awfully tough on our hitters.” Greinke is 0-4 with a 2.48 ERA in six road starts. It would also help if the Royals (24-34) gave Greinke more run support. Kansas City’s .279 batting average is among the best in the AL, but Greinke is receiving among the league’s lowest run support at 2.64.
