The model leans Chicago White Sox because Kansas City Royals owns the cleaner scoring-margin profile and Kansas City Royals has the recent-form edge. Park factor, weather, and lineup handedness vs. the starter own the run-total swing here.

Rafty’s call: ✗ WRONG
Pre-game pick: Kansas City Royals at 53%. Actual: Chicago White Sox by 1.

Formula: expected win rate from points-for vs. points-allowed (anchored), scoring margin, recent form, and home/venue edge, adjusted by league volatility. Refreshes whenever the venue/game workflow republishes game pages.
