Against the Royals in two previous career appearances, Hammel is 0-1 with a 5.40 ERA.
Despite the team's dismal first half of the season, the Royals have actually been hitting the ball fairly well through 83 games, placing seventh in the majors in batting average at .262 entering play on Sunday. Unfortunately, KC hurlers have failed to make timely hitting stand up game after game due to the fact that they have one of the highest ERAs in baseball at the moment (4.58).
"I thought, as expected, he didn't feel strong throughout the game," Boston manager Terry Francona said. "It was hot and he was coming off being real sick. I thought the two pitches, the one pitch he tried to go in on [Domonic] Brown and the other pitch he tried to go away, and it cost him four runs. Other than that, I actually thought he pitched pretty well."
Andrew Miller (2-0) worked six innings for the win, giving up seven hits, two runs and two walks with three strikeouts.
J.A. Happ (3-10) lasted 6 2/3 frames in defeat and was touched for seven hits and five runs while walking three and fanning as many batters.
Houston will hand the ball to rookie Jordan Lyles, who at 0-3 is still searching for his first big league win. Lyles absorbed the loss on Tuesday against the Texas Rangers, as he was hit for five runs and 10 hits in six innings, upping his ERA to 4.75.
Houston took two of three from the Red Sox the last time these teams met back in 2008.
"I felt good," Beachy said. "I'm just a little upset with myself for wasting too many pitches. I'd like to get deeper into games."
"He's been able to command his fastball and throw the curveball," Atlanta manager Fredi Gonzalez said. "Then his changeup keeps getting better and better."
