Kansas City continues to struggle at the plate with Friday’s loss in which it scored just two runs. The Royals have been held to 3 runs or less in six of their last nine. One would think Pelfrey being on the mound might help, but he actually has an ERA of 3.06 in his last three starts. Detroit may struggle a bit with Duffy, but the Tigers have found ways to manufacture runs at home, with Friday being a good example of that. Look for Detroit to pick up another close win.
