 Oakland has gone 17-5 (.773) against teams in the AL Central in 2019, the best record by any AL team against any AL division. The A's pitching staff has a 2.77 ERA against the division, and their starting pitchers have made 15 quality starts in these 22 games.

 The Royals lost two of three to the Indians and have now gone nine consecutive series without a series win. There have only been four longer streaks without a series win in MLB this season (including one by the Royals, from April 15 -- June 9).

 The A's were swept in a two-game set by the Giants, their first back-to-back losses since July 24-26. A's pitchers allowed the Giants a .400 batting average (8/20) with runners in scoring position, but on the season their .248 opponent batting average with RISP ranks seventh in MLB.

 Mark Canha's nine-game hit streak trails only Michael Brantley (18) in the AL, and Canha has only had one longer streak in his career (11 in 2018). He homered three times in the two-game series against the Giants, and he's one of five outfielders with an OPS over 1.000 since the All-Star break (min. 150 PA).

 Jorge Soler hit his 36th home run in his last game and now trails only Mike Trout (42) in the AL. However, he's hit .121 with one home run in his last 10 games -- in his previous 10 games, he hit .400 with seven home runs.

 Ryan O'Hearn had his second career multi-homer game yesterday and scored three runs in a game for the first time in his career. The Royals have gone 14-5 in games O'Hearn homers in his career, and 29-74 in games he's played and does not homer.

HP - Guccione, 1B - Everitt, 2B - Barrett, 3B - Welke

When Oakland's Homer Bailey steps to the mound at Kauffman Stadium in the bottom of the first Monday to face the Kansas City Royals, he will be able to cross off one more team on an impressive list.
The Royals will be the 29th MLB team that Bailey has faced in his 13-year career, leaving only the Cincinnati Reds, where Bailey spent the first 12 years of his career, on the list of teams he has yet to face.

A's Bailey set for first game against Royals

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP)  Marcus Semien set the tone early, and his Oakland teammates quickly followed.
The shortstop homered, tripled and drove in a career-high seven runs as the Athletics set season highs for runs and hits in a 19-4 thrashing of the Kansas City Royals on Monday night.
