KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The consensus among prognosticators is that the Chicago White Sox or Kansas City Royals will finish in the bottom of the AL Central, and whichever avoids the cellar won’t fare a whole lot better.

Well, one of them will soon be undefeated.

The White Sox and Royals meet today at Kauffman Stadium for the start of a season-opening three-game series. The rivals are supposed to have Friday off before continuing through the weekend, but there is rain in the forecast for opening day, which could mean pushing back the pomp and circumstance.

Regardless of the weather — or expectations, for that matter — both clubs are eager to get going.
