Let’s get back on track!

The Royals are skidding, but the good news: now they’re at home. On the road, the Royals are a disappointing 17-23. But within the confines of Kauffman Stadium’s magical parking lots, they’re at a whopping 25-14—ten whole games above .500.

With the Royals losing their way out of one of the three Wild Card slots, they’ll need to get back on track. They’ll do so by tossing their ace at the equation: here’s hoping that Cole Ragans can shut down Miami and send Kansas City to the W column again.

Also: welcome to the big leagues, CJ Alexander!
