The Royals have won five of their nine matchups overall with the Indians so far this season, including two of the three meetings in Cleveland.

The Indians have been outscored 33-9 during their current six game home losing streak and will be looking to avoid dropping seven in a row at home for the first time since May 24-June 6, 2011.

Edinson Volquez is one victory shy of reaching double-digits in wins in consecutive seasons for the first time in his career. Volquez is 1-2 with an 11.48 ERA in four career meetings with Cleveland -- the highest ERA in his career against any opponent (minimum 2 games).

After posting quality starts in each of his first four outings since being called up from the minors in June, Cody Anderson allowed four earned runs and 10 hits in 2.2 innings of work in his last start last Wednesday (against Milwaukee). Anderson will be facing the Royals for the first time in his career.

Michael Brantley is hitting .335 in his career against Kansas City -- the highest batting average in his career against any opponent (minimum 30 games). Brantley has gone hitless in three of his last five home games, batting .167 in that span (3-for-18).

Eric Hosmer is hitting .361 with three doubles, one triple, three homers and 13 RBI in nine games against Cleveland this season. Hosmer has 10 home runs and 49 RBI in his career against the Indians -- the most homers and RBI in his career against any opponent.

HP - Cederstrom, 1B - Woodring, 2B - Cooper, 3B - Barksdale

It's well-documented how Corey Kluber's major league-worst run support average has contributed to his AL-leading loss total.
His Cleveland Indians haven't scored much in his three losses to the Kansas City Royals, though this time a favorable matchup with Jeremy Guthrie presents itself.
