What is the story about?
With their best players playing elsewhere, the Kansas City Royals are 6-9 (nice). And in today’s contest, they’ll face a team with a worse Spring Training record: the 4-12 Seattle Mariners.
It’s the Battle for Grass Creek, in other words, but a preseason version. The Royals will send Cole Ragans to the mound. As a reminder, Team USA had asked Ragans to pitch for them, but he declined in pursuit of a more normal Spring Training experience following an injury-filled 2025.
