Kansas City, MO. – The Kansas City Royals will look to put a halt to their recent skid in the series finale with the San Diego Padres. Cole Ragans will get the nod for the Royals as he looks to improve his record back to above .500 with a win today. Kansas City allowed 18 runs over their last two contests in this series. If they want to turn the tide and pick up a win before hitting the road, they’re going to need better performances from all areas of their pitching. The bullpen has fallen apart in recent games and it has cost the Royals.
The Royals’ recent struggles have pushed them five games behind the Guardians in the race for the AL Central. That is not an un-closable gap, but the Royals will need to pick up a win today heading into a series with the Guardians. The Royals will have two total meetings with the Guardians in June and ultimately, Kansas City has a lot of time and room to come back from their recent struggles. A win in this contest would pull them closer.
1:51 p.m. – Both teams fail to produce a runner in the third inning. There are just two total hits in this contest so far and the pitchers have been playing fantastic. 0-0
1:40 p.m. – Adam Frazier gets the first hit of the day for Kansas City before Nick Loftin hits into an inning ending double play. Both pitchers are working around runners well thus far. 0-0
1:33 p.m. – Ragan’s gave up his first hit of the day but it’s all for not as he shuts down the next three battles to end the half inning. 0-0
1:25 p.m. – All three Royals put the bat on the ball but none of them can open grass for a hit as they go down in order. Bobby Witt Jr had the best chance to get on base but a great defensive effort by Jake Cronenworth kept him off. 0-0
1:19 p.m. – Ragans faced some early struggles with his command, throwing seven total balls to the first two batters and walking one. The result is all that matters though and Ragans closed the inning before Fernando Tatis Jr could move from first. 0-0
1:10 p.m. – The game is underway here as Cole Ragans retires the first batter to get the action started. 0-0
Where: Kauffman Stadium, Kansas City, MO.

The San Diego Padres and the Kansas City Royals meet Sunday in MLB action from Kauffman Stadium. We will look at this from a betting perspective and determine the best bets for this game. Here’s a Kansas City Royals vs San Diego Padres Prediction.
The San Diego Padres will send out Michael King for the start here and King is 4-4 with a 4.09 ERA and 74 strikeouts this season. In his career, King is 0-1 with a 6.23 ERA and 6 strikeouts against the Royals. Cole Ragans will start for the Royals here and is 4-4 with a 3.36 ERA and 83 strikeouts this season. This will be Ragans’ first career start against the Padres.
The San Diego Padres come into this one looking to complete the sweep after a 7-3 win over the Royals on Saturday, picking up back-to-back series wins after a series win over the Marlins to start the week.
Jurickson Profar leads the Padres with 67 hits along with a .325 batting average and 10 doubles with 8 homers and 38 RBIs. Jake Cronenworth has 38 RBIs while Fernando Tatis Jr. has belted a team-high 10 home runs this season. Manny Machado has 5 home runs and 29 RBIs but also has 52 strikeouts while Ha-Seong Kim has 45 hits with 3 triples, 6 doubles, 7 home runs, 27 RBIs and a team-high 13 stolen bases. Tatis Jr. also has a team-high 55 strikeouts and 6 stolen bases as well this season.
The Kansas City Royals come into this one looking to salvage something from this series despite having already taken the L in the series after Saturday’s loss which stings for the Royals after a series loss to the Twins earlier in the week.
Bobby Witt Jr. leads the Royals with 75 hits including 9 home runs, 42 RBIs and team-highs of 6 triples and 16 doubles with 17 stolen bases. Salvador Perez also has a team-high 10 home runs with 41 RBIs and 14 doubles. Nelson Velazquez also has a team-high 54 strikeouts while Maikel Garcia has 5 home runs, 35 RBIs and 13 stolen bases along with 3 triples and 12 doubles this season. Vinnie Pasquantino has 15 doubles with 7 homers and 39 RBIs of his own on the year.
I’m on the Royals here. I really like what I’ve seen from Cole Ragans in a lot of his recent outings, and Ragans is a pitcher viewed by many to be the staff ace of this Kansas City rotation. Michael King has been wildly inconsistent for the Padres, and it’s not lost on me that the Royals are still one of the best home teams in baseball this season. I’ll side with Kansas City at home here.
SAN DIEGO, CA — “The rising cost of doing business in California” contributed to Rubio’s Coastal Grill officials decision to close 13 San Diego County locations Friday, a spokesperson told local media outlets.
KGTV is reporting Rubio’s closed 48 underperforming locations across California on May 31, including locations in Pacific Beach, El Cajon, Escondido, La Jolla, San Marco, Solana Beach and Vista. The following locations in San Diego also closed:
Rubio’s is among California fast food restaurants affected by an increase in minimum wage costs, which took effect this past year. In 2024, California’s hourly minimum wage increased to $16 for most workers on January 1st and to $20 for fast food workers in April.
Alan Gin, an economics professor with the University of San Diego, told NBC 7 San Diego there have been other factors — on top of the wage increases — affecting Rubio’s, which has had financial difficulties for awhile. In 2015, the business had 193 locations nationwide.
“So –they’ve cut about a third of those and so they’re going to cut another third with the closings that were announced yesterday,” he told NBC.
In 202o, the business filed for bankruptcy, citing COVID-19 as having a significant impact on the business.
“This restructuring plan creates the long-term financial stability we need to continue to serve our communities for years to come,” co-founder Ralph Rubio said in a statement.
