Tuesday Turn Three 6/10/25
Tuesday Night National Game - New York Yankees @ Kansas City Royals (7:40 PM ET, TBS).
The powerhouse Yankees, led by ace Max Fried, travel to Kauffman Stadium to take on the Kansas City Royals and their electric young star, Bobby Witt Jr. The Royals will counter with their own impressive young lefty, Noah Cameron, setting up a fascinating showdown for the whole country to watch.
Hitter 1 - Aaron Judge (New York Yankees)
Info Here: Judge is putting together a historic season, and his splits against left-handed pitching are simply staggering. Judge is hitting .422 with a 1.537 OPS and 7 home runs in just 45 at-bats against lefties this year. He now faces the Royals' rookie southpaw, Noah Cameron. While Cameron has been impressive (0.85 ERA), he's a young arm facing the best hitter in baseball. Judge has at least one extra-base hit in three of his last four games.
Judge 2+ Total Bases -145
Hitter 2 - Bobby Witt Jr. (Kansas City Royals)
While Aaron Judge is getting the national headlines, Bobby Witt Jr. is having a spectacular season of his own and comes into tonight riding a seven-game hitting streak. He's the engine of the Royals' offense and a threat to do everything on the field. He faces a tough test in Yankees ace Max Fried, but Witt Jr. has been proficient against left-handers this season, hitting .319 with an .867 OPS. He has all the tools to make an impact, even against an elite arm.
Witt 3+ Total Bases +650
Pitcher - Max Fried (New York Yankees)
Fried has been brilliant in his first year in pinstripes, posting an incredible 8-1 record with a 1.78 ERA. He’s coming off a dominant performance where he threw six innings of one-hit, shutout ball. The Royals offense ranks 23rd in OPS against left-handed pitching this season, presenting a favorable matchup for Fried. He's recorded a quality start in 9 of his 13 outings and will look to go deep again tonight.
Fried 6+ Strikeouts +130
