The Kansas City Royals will send James Shields to the mound in their wild-card game versus the Oakland A's Tuesday, and he's fared quite well versus the American League West club this season.

In his career, Shields has made 15 starts versus the A's and has a record of 6-4. He owns an ERA of 3.82 and has struck out 87 batters in his 103 2/3 innings of work.
The A's are 4-10 last 14 playoff games and 1-4 last 5 meetings in Kansas City. The Royals are 7-1 last 8 Shields starts against A.L. West teams. This will be the 1st playoff game in Kanas City in 29 years so expect a rowdy home crowd and the Royals have the better bats in their lineup.
