The odds at the beginning of this series for the Royals to take three straight from the AL West-leading Houston Astros had to be off the charts, but that is exactly what has happened. The Royals have not had a successful season but they have had their moments. Unfortunately for Houston, they have had a tough time of late as they are just 6-10 in their last 16 games. The Astros have actually not played well since their 11-game winning streak, as they are just 23-22 since. I think the Royals are a confident group right now and I will back Kansas City.
