Royals will avoid facing All-Star pitcher this week. Here’s how to watch KC’s games
Depending on your point of view, it’s either good or bad news that star pitcher Paul Skenes started Sunday for the Pittsburgh Pirates.
That means Skenes, who was chosen for the July 15 All-Star Game, won’t be available to pitch this week when the Pirates face the Royals at Kauffman Stadium. The Royals will avoid one of MLB’s best pitchers, which is a plus for them.
But Royals fans will miss a chance to see Skenes in person. That’s the negative.
The Royals open a three-game series against the Pirates and, after an off-day Thursday, will take on the New York Mets at home.
Here is how to watch or listen to the Royals’ six games this week. Fans can stream games on the FanDuel Sports app, which is available for purchase on Amazon Prime.
