KANSAS CITY – Tomoyuki Sugano gets his second chance in the majors this afternoon after leaving his debut with cramping in both hands.

Sugano allowed two runs and four hits in four innings at Rogers Centre in Toronto in the fourth game of the season. He faces the Royals today in the bitter cold, but at least it’s dry.

Gunnar Henderson is serving as the designated hitter today and Gary Sánchez is catching. Adley Rutschman is on the bench.

Ryan Mountcastle moves up from eighth to cleanup. Cedric Mullins is batting third.

Heston Kjerstad stays in left field. Ramón Urías is at third base and Jordan Westburg is at second. Jackson Holliday is the shortstop.

The Royals are starting right-hander Michael Wacha, who faced the Guardians in his first start and allowed one run in four innings. He owns a 5.21 ERA in 11 career starts against the Orioles.

Mountcastle is 8-for-19 (.421) with a triple and three home runs against Wacha. Mullins is 8-for-20 (.400) with two doubles, a triple and two home runs. Urías is 5-for-14 (.357) with a double, triple and homer.

Henderson is 1-for-11, and Sánchez is 0-for-9 with six strikeouts.
