Los Angeles (70-48) will host Kansas City (49-70) for a three-game series. Both teams are struggling as of late and rank near the bottom of the league both offensively and defensively in August.
The Royals are 3-7 over the last 10 games and 1-3 in the last four outings. Kansas City tosses Noah Cameron on the mound, who is coming off his best start of the season. Cameron went 8.0 innings with three hits, one earned run, nine strikeouts, and one walk against Minnesota (2-1 win). That broke the Royals’ four-game losing streak with Cameron on the mound.
Los Angeles is 1-8 in the last nine games and fresh off enduring a season-long seven-game losing streak. The Dodgers are hitting .244 (15th) in August with the sixth-fewest runs scored (25), while the pitching staff owns a 5.27 ERA (27th). However, they turn to Tarik Skubal, who makes his second start with the team. Skubal took a loss in his debut with Los Angeles over six innings against the Cubs with two earned runs and four hits allowed. Skubal went 7.1 innings with one earned run and 12 strikeouts to one walk in his only start versus Kansas City this season.
