The Royals on Monday announced game times for their home games next season and said in a news release “two home series will be impacted by the World Cup at the Truman Sports Complex.”
The first is when the Cardinals will be at Kauffman Stadium. Instead of a traditional Friday to Sunday three-game series, the teams will play on Thursday, June 18 (6:40 p.m.), and Friday, June 19 (7:10 p.m.).
A group stage World Cup game will be held at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium on June 20, so the Royals and Cardinals won’t play that day. The series will finish on Sunday, June 21, at 1:10 p.m.
