The Royals are near the bottom of the majors offensively, ranked No. 23 in team batting average. Rookie right fielder Edward Olivares got off to an amazing start, hitting .371 through his first 35 at-bats. He is currently on the 10-day injured list with a quad issue, though. Veteran catcher Salvador Perez (thumb) is also sidelined.

The White Sox have a deeper, more talented lineup than Kansas City, which is going to make the difference. They have won 10 of their last 15 games, while Kansas City is 2-7 in its last nine home games.
The White Sox should be able to close this series out with a win here this afternoon.
