The Atlanta Braves announcers Chip Caray and Joe Simpson were treated to local foods this past weekend in Milwuakee even trying "The Beast" a Bratwurst butterflied with a hot dog wrapped in bacon inserted and smothered in onions and sauerkraut in a steamy bun. Today Caray and Simpson must be licking their chops at the opportunity to sample some of the famous Kansas City Barbecue as the Atlanta Braves travel to Kansas City for a short two game set. Mr. Henry Perry was one of the first cooks in the early 1900's and operated out of an old trolley barn in Kansas City where he sold slowed cooked ribs and sold them on newspaper pages for 25 cents a slab. In our modern time the famous Kansas City Barbecue is slow cooked meat including pork, beef and chicken over a variety of woods covered with a tomato and molasses based sauce for a spicy and sweet flavor. Most Barbecue Plates today include baked beans, french fries and cole slaw as side items and the Kansas City Metropolitan Area has over one hundred barbecue restaurants to choose from. Atlanta managed to avoid another road sweep Sunday with Brain McCann's grand slam but still have not found a consistent road game. Kansas City has won 8 of 11 at Kauffman Field after losing a franchise record 11 games and this short series will be another test today of Atlanta's road merit. Medlen is 4-7 2.96 ERA overall this season but 3-1 1.69 ERA in four outings this month. Medlen allowed one Earned Run in seven Innings Pitched last time out and will look to continue to stay sharp. Santana is 5-5 2.64 ERA but has a 0.94 ERA in four June starts and has pitched at least seven innings in seven consecutive outings. Santana is 2-3 however in that time frame as the Royals have scored three runs or fewer in four of those games. Heyward and Freeman are a combined 9 for 50 last seven games for Atlanta while Bulter is 2 for 14, Gordon and Perez 2 for 15, and Cain 1 for 15 last five games for Kansa City. Justin Upton is the Atlanta team leader with 15 HR's but only has two hits in last 15 at bats and questionable today after missing two games with a sore hand. Atlanta has struggled in June on the road and matching up against Santana may not provide any relief however Braves fans will not go hungry enjoying the famous kansas City Barbecue.

Atlanta is 4-1 SU last five vs. KC. The Over is 6 of 7 in this matchup. KC is 8-3 SU last 11 at Home and 1-4 SU last five overall. With both Medlen and Santana having much success in June and both teams struggling to produce runs the focus today will be Under 8 -130 fading the trend looking for both pitchers to be sharp. No Score First Inning -130 and H+R+E's Under 26 -115 for two small props rounds of the evening.
