Dallas Keuchel enjoys being at home.
The Houston Astros pitching sensation has been nothing short of dominant at Minute Maid Park this season, posting a 15-0 record with a 1.46 ERA. That’s really good. Like really, bordering on absurdly, good.
Keuchel and his absurdly good home field stats will face their next big test on Sunday afternoon as Houston’s bearded wonder gets the start in Game 3 of the ALDS against the Kansas City Royals, a matchup that will give the winner a 2-1 edge in the series. So, how do the Royals manage to go up against Keuchel and his arsenal of pitches?
Consider their very recent history.
Keuchel threw eight shutout innings against Kansas City on June 30 before giving up 10 hits in 6 2/3 innings a month later. In other words, the Royals can hit Keuchel, they just have to get into a rhythm against him.
On the Royals side of things, Edinson Volquez is slated to get the start. The right-handed finished the regular season with a 3.55 ERA in 200.1 IP, posting a 13-9 record and 155 strikeouts
First pitch for Game 3 is slated for 4:10 p.m. ET on MLBN. Not going to be near a TV during the game? That’s cool. Here’s how to watch the matchup online and on mobile:
