The Royals, who have gone a franchise-record 16 consecutive series without winning one (0-14-2), are 1-5 against the Tigers this season. This will be the first meeting of the season in Kansas City, where the Royals have won 10 of the last 14 matchups.

Kansas City is 1-8 in its last nine games, averaging 2.3 runs. It has totaled 68 hits while striking out 95 times, the franchise's first time with 68 or fewer hits and at least 95 strikeouts in a nine-game span.

Adalberto Mondesi hit his 15th double of the season Friday and stole his 24th base a day later. He is the first Royal with at least 15 doubles and 20 steals through his team's first 65 games of a season since Willie Wilson had 15 doubles and 30 stolen bases in 1980.

The Tigers are last in the AL in driving in a runner from third with fewer than two outs at 44.9 percent. This is the worst mark by an AL club since the 1981 Blue Jays drove in just 42.5 percent of their chances.

JaCoby Jones has hit safely in 14 of 15 games, batting .407 (22-for-54) to raise his season average 77 points to .250. He hit a pair of homers Saturday to give him eight on the season -- the lowest for any team leader.

Miguel Cabrera has three multi-hit games in his last five contests and is 11-for-22 in the six games against the Royals this season. He has a .471 batting average during a 10-game hitting streak against Kansas City -- the longest hitting streak of his career against the franchise.
