Royals vs. White Sox Friday game thread

If you’re wondering why the game thread is so early, it is because this game has been moved up to 6:10 CT instead of the original 7:10 CT scheduled time due to storms in the area. These are the kind of things you can do when there are no fans in the stands.

Danny Duffy pitches for the first time in a week after some mild forearm fatigue. He allowed just one run over five innings against the Twins his last time out, and he has 14 strikeouts to just 3 walks in his last two starts.

The Royals have yet to defeat the White Sox this year in three tries, and Chicago comes into this series a hot team, having won 9 of their last 10 games.

Game time is 6:10 CT on Fox Sports Kansas City.
