2013 Game 109: MN @ KC

79 Comments

KANSAS CITY - The Minnesota Twins and the Kansas City Royals baseball teams will play a series of games against each other this week, according to public documents released by both teams and confirmed by Major League Baseball officials. The Minnesota and Kansas City teams will play three evening games in the series, one each on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. They will play the games at Kauffman Stadium, the home field for the Royals located at 1 Royal Way adjacent to Interstate Highway 70 on the east side of Kansas City. Both the Twins and the Royals are assigned to the five-team American League Central Division of Major League Baseball.

The first game of the series is scheduled to begin Monday at 7:10 p.m. Central Daylight Savings Time. The visiting Minnesota Twins have announced that Kevin Correia will be their probable starting pitcher for the game on Monday, while the Kansas City Royals named Jeremy Guthrie as their probable starting pitcher. The right-handed throwing Correia and Guthrie were both starting pitchers in a game the two teams played in Minneapolis just five days ago. The Royals won that game by a score of four to three, and won all three games of that series, a feat referred to in the sport as a 'sweep'.

Monday's game will be the fourteenth that the two teams have played against each other in the current baseball season. To date this year, Kansas City has won ten games against Minnesota while Minnesota has beat Kansas City in just three games. Baseball experts have deemed this year's Kansas City Royals team to be mediocre, while they characterize the Minnesota Twins as simply bad. Neither team is expected to win their regular season division title or to secure a position in the Major League Baseball post-season tournament.

    1. Thanks for the offer, Rhu_Ru, but we just sat down to dinner out here in the western 'Burbs. Give me a heads up next time you're in town.

      2. probably good you weren't here; it's better than I make a huge mess with this western BBQ burger in the presence of a few strangers than anyone I knew

  3. When my youngest daughter got home last night, she informed us she had gone to the Twins game with her boyfriend. Both attending the game and having a boyfriend were news to me.

  6. Runners on 1st & 3rd, one out, no runs. That was positively Twinsian offense by the Royals ballclub.

  7. ARod just had his first AB and was booed. He hit a bloop single. Underwhelming all around.

  8. BTW, the antibiotics have kicked in and the tooth is feeling much better. Root canal tomorrow at noon.

  15. Correia's Gameday mugshot looks like it would be really easy to photoshop so he looks like a pumpkin.

  23. Ugh. I just got back from the place I was housesitting today, and I raced to get this PS3 set up so I could see as much of the game as possible.

        3. 21 walks to 12 hits in 68 at-bats? Hicks was attempting a stat line like that early in the year, but looks like Kottaras is better at it.

  35. If I was Gardy, I'd pick a fight with the ump and get thrown out so I could go do something less aggravating than manage for the rest of this game.

    Since I'm me, I'll just stop watching the game.

  42. Everyone knows that thirteen is an unlucky number. That bad luck for Kansas City, combined with how tired the Royals must be from running around the bases all night, pretty much assures victory for the Twins. We'll just have to settle for 101-61!
