Royals welcome back Gordon vs. Yanks
(MLB.com Kansas City Royals)

Alex Gordon, who is batting .175 with no home runs in 39 games this season, will face Yankees right-hander Luis Severino (2-2) in his return on Wednesday. Severino will be making his first career start against the Royals and will be opposed by right-hander Jason Hammel (1-5), who looks to turn his season around.
