The Oakland Athletics (26-48) and the Kansas City Royals (41-32) are set to begin their three-game series at Oakland Coliseum, capping a busy MLB schedule this Tuesday. The Athletics will try to put an end on their 9-game losing streak with a win against the Royals. This June, Oakland have compiled a 3-12 record, batting .213 with 47 runs and a 4.87 ERA. The Royals, meanwhile, aim for consistency after taking their sixth loss in eight games. Kansas are 6-8 this June, recording 61 runs on a .238 batting average and a 4.94 ERA. The string of losses has dropped the Royals 5 games below the AL Central leaders, the Cleveland Guardians.

A’s first baseman Tyler Soderstorm recorded two RBIs for the second time in four games in an 8-7 loss to the Minnesota Twins last June 16.

Our Kansas City Royals vs Athletics Prediction
Marsh has racked up 18 strikeouts in his last three starts, including a seven Ks performance vs. the high-powered New York Yankees on June 13. Marsh, who sports a 4.76 ERA this June, will face an Athletics batting lineup that stuck out 28 times over the last five games or 5.6 strikeouts per contest. This is the first time Marsh will pitch against the Royals in his career, so it would be interesting to see how he would fare against the A’s sluggers. Still, momentum is on Marsh’s side for him to throw at least six Ks in this game. Our betting prediction for Oakland Athletics vs. Kansas City Royals: Alec Marsh throws 6+ strikeouts, -205, at DraftKings.
