 The Royals allowed a combined six runs in the ninth inning in their four-game set against the Rays, including allowing a go-ahead two-run home run on Thursday. The Royals have a 6.65 ERA in the ninth inning this season, fourth highest in MLB.

 Detroit's starters have a combined 3.51 ERA this season, but its bullpen has a 5.07 ERA. That difference (1.56) is the largest in the American League (starters better).

 The Tigers swept the Royals in April this season, hitting .233 in the series but posting a .364 on-base percentage. The Royals issued 17 walks in that series, their most in any series this season.

 Hunter Dozier's 1.121 OPS is the best in the American League among batting title qualifiers, just ahead of Mike Trout's 1.094 OPS. The last Royal to lead the AL in OPS in a full season was George Brett (1.022) during their 1985 World Series season.

 Ronny Rodriguez has collected a hit in seven of his nine games this season, hitting .303 overall and .391 against right-handed pitching. Last season, he hit just .220 overall, including .197 versus righties.

 The Royals lead MLB in steals this season with 33 -- no other team has more than 25. This includes 10 steals of third base, which is double of any other team in MLB.
