The Cleveland Guardians will attempt to move over .500 for the first time since April 19 when they play the third contest of their four-game home series against the Kansas City Royals on Saturday.
The Guardians evened their record after posting five wins in their past seven games, including a 6-1 victory in the series opener versus the Royals on Thursday and a 3-0 triumph on Friday. The recent success has allowed Cleveland to nip at the heels of the first-place Minnesota Twins in the American League Central.
"The most important thing is for us to take care of what we know we can take care of," Bell told Bally Sports Cleveland. "In our division, we have to win games. Once we get clicking, once we get going, things will definitely click. At the end of the season, we'll know we will be over .500."Like Bell, the Guardians have enjoyed success versus the Royals this season. Cleveland has won four of five meetings this season, outscoring Kansas City 28-7 in the process.
"It's a pretty good lineup and I definitely didn't have my best stuff," Williams said, per Cleveland.com. "I left some pitches over the plate and it showed." "Hopefully, we gain a lot more confidence," Singer said after that game. "We haven't lacked confidence all year long. We're just going to work every day working hard and trying to get better. It paid off this series. Hopefully, it turns into a good run for us."
