Leg 1: Ryan Bergert is having a solid start to his career for KC. But Boston has won six straight, it’s crushing right-handers and Garrett Crochet is on the bump. Five of its six wins during this run have been by at least three runs.

Leg 2: Garrett Crochet went 4-0 with a 1.734 ERA in four July starts and hasn’t lost a game since May. He has walked at least two batters in three of those four games, but no team walks fewer than the Royals.

Leg 3: An over/under of 14.5 is low (under 5 innings), but Ryan Bergert hasn’t gone over this mark in four straight games. In three of those instances, he’s been pulled despite allowing 0-2 runs. Boston’s hot bats may make KC pull Bergert, a converted reliever, early yet again.
