I could never bet that heavily against a team comprised of battled tested champions just because the pitching match up favors KC. Last time these two pitchers matched up Peavy matched Ventura for 5 in and Bochy had a brain fart and botched that game. He allowed Peavy to start the 6th and first 2 guys reached and brought his 5th and 6th best options to relieve and they put gas on the fire. It was a 2-2 game after 5 1/2.... If Peavy gives an effort just as good as last time this will be a coin flip because I sure as hell believe Bochy will manage this game with much better and Royals wont see him a 3rd time thru the order.
