Neither the Royals nor Angels have anything to play for at this stage, and both pitchers are in shaky form. We should see some offense in this spot. Lorenzen has been hittable all season, especially lately, where he’s allowed 31 hits and 17 runs in his last 28 innings. In 72 road innings, Lorenzen has a 5.75 ERA and .285 allowed batting average. In 19.1 MLB innings, Farris has allowed 19 hits and 14 earned runs. Farris has walked 6 batters in his last 8.1 innings. Expect some fireworks. Give me the over.
