Royals vs Guardians, September 25 live game discussion

As the season winds down, Michael Wacha prepares to make his final start for Kansas City, needing nearly six frames to hit the two-hundred-inning milestone for the first time in his career. The right-hander will duel Cleveland pitcher Tanner Bibee, who relies heavily on his cutter and limited the Royals to a single run across six innings during their August matchup.

Kansas City enters the contest dealing with bullpen struggles, having surrendered a high earned run average in recent outings following a dependable earlier stretch. Managerial adjustments for the lineup feature Josh Rojas stepping into action with Maikel Garcia resting, while John Rave shifts to center field and Isaac Collins takes over left.
