Yankees vs. Royals - April 10

The Yankees have one more crack at the KC Royals tonight, in the finale of the 3-game series. There's a 50% chance of rain by game time and 30% throughout the night, so the conditions shouldn't be any better than they were for the first two games.

Andy Pettitte (0-1, 5.40) makes his 2nd start of the season against left-hander John Bale (0-1, 5.68). Pettitte pitched poorly against the Rays his first time out, but is 11-3, 3.15 in 19 games (17 starts) against the Royals. Bale was used as a reliever last year, but has been into the rotation for the time being. He's 0-1, 4.66 in 4 career appearances against the Yankees.
