New York Yankees-Kansas City Royals free livestream online: How to watch MLB game tonight, TV, time

The New York Yankees play against the Kansas City Royals at 7:10 p.m. CT tonight on YES Network. Fans can watch this MLB game for free online by using the free trials offered by DirecTV Stream and Fubo TV.

The Yankees are one of the best MLB teams this year, as they boast a 46-21 record.

New York currently leads the American League East over the Baltimore Orioles, and the team is 8-2 during the past 10 games. However, the Yankees have lost two of their past three matchups, leading to their first series loss since early May.

The Yankees might be forced to play without their star right fielder Juan Soto tonight because he is dealing with a forearm injury. Center fielder Aaron Judge will need to pick up the slack. Judge enters this series with 24 home runs and a .305 batting average, making him one of the best hitters in professional baseball. He has also been swinging a hot bat recently, as he has finished three straight games with multiple hits. If Judge continues his hot streak at the plate tonight, then the Yankees have a great chance to obtain their 47th win of the season.

Kansas City is currently second place in the American League Central with a 39-27 record. This could be the team’s first winning season since 2015, which is the same year they won the World Series. The Royals are enjoying some success they have not experienced for nearly a decade.

Kansas City has been led by shortstop Bobby Witt Jr., who has a .320 batting average this season. Witt Jr. also leads the team with 11 home runs and 47 RBI, making him an important player to watch in tonight’s game. Another player that has been key for Kansas City this year is catcher Salvador Perez. He has 10 home runs and 42 RBI, making him another threat for the Royals offense this season.
