WATCH Royals vs. Indians Online Live Stream, Free MLB 2015 Game 1 Coverage

Baseball's back for the official 2015 MLB season!

The Kansas City Royals take the field against the Cleveland Indians in Week 17 of the regular season on Monday, July 27 at 7:10 p.m. EST at Progressive Field in Ohio. Read on to see where fans can watch and listen to a live stream of the Monday evening ballgame online - also catch up-to-date feeds and coverage on highlight plays and scores.

While Kansas City snags a top spot in ESPN.com's official break-down of all 30 teams (power rankings), Cleveland still lags a bit behind:

Royals (2): "Welcome to Kansas City, Johnny Cueto. The Royals acquired the guy who will be their likely Game 1 starter in the postseason. Cueto has the opportunity to post his fifth straight season with an ERA under 3.00 (it's now at 2.62). Left-handers are hitting .173 against him, making him a good matchup against the Yankees - you know, in case that happens." David Schoenfield, SweetSpot 

Kansas City currently maintains an impressive 59-38 winning record and remains 1st in the American League Central Division.

Indians (18): "The Indians were outscored 26-5 by the White Sox over the weekend, getting swept in the four-game series. Their offense is physically painful to watch at this point, and there aren't many positive things to say about anything they did last week." Stephanie Liscio, It's Pronounced "Lajaway" 

With that, Cleveland holds a steady 45-52 winning record and snags the meager 5th spot in the American League Central Division.

Tonight's ballgame will be broadcasted live on local sports channels FSKC and STOh.
