Pitching in this one are Brady Singer for the Royals and Lance Lynn for the White Sox.

The Royals are having an abysmal year, but Singer has been one of the few bright spots in an otherwise terrible season. He has three years of arbitration left on his contract, so KC has hope for the future.

After having the best year of his career, Lynn has made a drastic regression. He had a late start to the season after sustaining a knee injury. To put into perspective how horrible this season is going, in 9 starts, he's allowed 34 runs. Last year, he made 28 starts and allowed only 47 runs.
