 Kansas City's games this season have featured early fireworks.  Of the 62 runs scored by and against the Royals, 51 crossed the plate in the first five innings, compared to only 11 runs from the sixth inning on.

 Chicago's #4 and #5 hitters in the batting order -- primarily Yasmani Grandal and Edwin Encarnacion -- have a combined .156 batting average with 20 strikeouts in 45 at-bats.

 Dallas Keuchel has a 2.61 career ERA against the Royals, which is the third lowest among active pitchers (minimum 50 IP), behind Jon Lester (1.84) and Mike Clevinger (1.98). Lucas Giolito, who will miss this series after starting on Wednesday, ranks fourth (2.75).

 Kris Bubic will make his major-league debut never having pitched above Class-A. But last season, Bubic was the only pitcher to start at least 20 games at that level and post an ERA below 3.00. . . and it wasn't close. He had a 2.23 ERA in 26 starts at low-A Lexington (9 GS) and high-A Wilmington (17 GS).

 Tim Anderson has hit more home runs against the Royals (8) than he has against any other team. So it may be more than coincidence that Anderson has been hit by five pitches thrown by Royals pitchers, compared to six HBPs against all other teams combined.

 Whit Merrifield has six hits in 12 at-bats against Dallas Keuchel. No other active major leaguer has a .500+ batting average vs. Keuchel on 10 or more ABs.

HP - Fletcher, 1B - Iassogna, 2B - Gibson, 3B - May

Jakob Junis, one of two front-line starting pitchers for the Kansas City Royals who have yet to appear in a regular-season game because of COVID-19, will make his season debut Sunday in the series wrap-up between the host Royals and the Chicago White Sox.
The White Sox will be going for a series sweep after taking Saturday's game 11-5.

Junis to debut for Royals, who hope to avoid White Sox sweep

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP)  Nick Madrigal was starting to lose sleep after two frustrating games without his first big league hit.
Once the top prospect finally got it, they kept right on coming.
