Royals will get a second chance to end a long broadcast shutout on Sunday
Let’s try this again.
The Royals are scheduled to play a Sunday night game this week when they face Detroit at Kauffman Stadium. It’ll end a long television shutout for Kansas City, which hasn’t had a Sunday night home game broadcast nationally since 2016.
Two weeks ago, the Royals were set to play their first Sunday night home game in a decade, but the threat of inclement weather moved the start to the afternoon.
Peacock will have its own broadcasters for Sunday night’s game.
For the games on Royals.TV this week, Ryan Lefebvre and Jeremy Guthrie will call the action, while Joel Goldberg will be the pregame and postgame host, with Bridget Howard serving as the sideline reporter.
