Lineups as Tigers go for a sweep of Royals in KC


The Tigers are looking to finish off a series sweep of the Kansas City Royals, and continue to add to their divisional lead — at 2 1/2 games coming in — over KC. If they were to complete the sweep, it would be just Detroit's third series sweep of the second half, and the first on the road since the trip to Texas on June 24-26.

Detroit leads the season series 13-5, and is 8-1 in Kansas City this season.
