Result:
WIN

Pittsburgh had a rough weekend, but is still on a 13-6 run, as well as 35-16 run. Veteran A.J. Burnett (7-3, 2.11 ERA) is having a strong campaign with the team 10-3 his last 13 starts. Burnett has registered seven consecutive quality starts and is walking a career-low 2.49 batters per nine innings. Burnett has made 11 career starts versus the Royals, going 5-3 with a 2.69 ERA. The Pirates are 9-1 in interleague games, plus 5-1 in Burnett's last six road starts. The team is also 5-1 against the Royals. Kansas City's Yordano Ventura (4-6, 4.76 ERA) has struggled much of the year with nagging injuries. He is off a win, but Ventura has not won back-to-back home starts since June 5-11, 2014. The team is 2-7 his last nine starts. The Pirates are 11-3 against a right-handed starter, and the Royals are 0-5 when Ventura faces a team with a winning record. Play the Pirates.
