Its Monday, March 31 and the Kansas City Royals (1-2) are in Milwaukee to face the Brewers (0-3). Kris Bubic is scheduled to pitch for KC against Elvin Rodriguez of the Brewers.

Milwaukee limps home after getting not just swept but embarrassed by the Yankees. The Brew Crew was outscored in the three-game series 36-14. Sal Frelick was a bright spot for Milwaukee. The right fielder picked up five hits in 11ABs (.455).

The Royals grabbed one win in three games at Kauffman Stadium against the Guardians. Part of the reason for the slow start for KC is Bobby Witt Jr. The shortstop and MVP candidate is off to a slow start with just three hits in 13 ABs (.231).
