The Kansas City Royals will take on the Minnesota Twins on Tuesday (September 20) in MLB action at the Kauffman Stadium. The two teams face each other in this American League Central clash where the stakes are high for one of the two teams.

The Twins, meanwhile, have played well this season. They are on the cusp of playoff contention as they continue to battle it out with the White Sox for the second playoff berth.
The Cleveland Guardians look steady atop the standings, and it looks like it’s going to be a two-horse race for that wildcard berth from the Central standings. The Twins have an overall record of 73-74, only three games behind the White Sox, who have 76 wins.
If the results go their way, and the Chicago-based team ends up getting swept by the Guardians and the Twins are swept by the Royals in this series, the Twins will leapfrog the White Sox to second place. However, this scenario is far from elementary, as the Twins haven’t been in the greatest of form, having lost six of their last ten fixtures.
Luis Arraez has a batting average of .317 which is the fourth-highest in the MLB this season. His performances have propelled the Twins to where they are this season after struggling for most of last season and finishing bottom of the division.
