Kansas City Royals counter with left-hander Jeff Francis, who is 0-4 with a 5.27 ERA in five starts since beating the Los Angeles Angels on June 10 for his only win in nine road starts this season. Francis, however, has allowed just two runs in six innings in each of his last two outings, the most recent a 2-1 loss to Detroit on Sunday. They are to string together those rare back-to-back victories in Minnesota, they’ll likely need a better effort than the last time they faced scheduled Twins starter Carl Pavano.
Minnesota Twins' Delmon Young is just 2 for 9 against Francis, but 5 for 8 with three doubles the last two games after missing the final 14 before the All-Star break with a sprained right ankle. Young is batting .353 with five RBIs in eight games against the Royals this season. There manager Ron Gardenhire said he remains confident in Capps after he blew his seventh save in 22 opportunities, tying the Chicago Cubs’ Carlos Marmol for the most blown saves in the majors.
