Kansas City Royals will meet the Seattle Mariners WATCH FREE BASEBALL: LIve Streaming Online MLB from Safeco Field Monday at 10:10 PM ET

Coming off a successful road trip, the Seattle Mariners return to Safeco Field looking to continue their home success over the Kansas City Royals.

Hisashi Iwakuma will try to help the Mariners do so in his first home start of 2014 on Thursday night.

Though Seattle's five-game winning streak ended with a 2-0 loss at Oakland in the finale of a doubleheader Wednesday, it went 7-2 on a trip that began with two straight victories at Yankee Stadium. The Mariners (17-16) have won 10 of 13 following an eight-game skid.

Seattle has won two straight and six of seven at home versus Kansas City, which was shut out in its last two there in 2013.

Danny Duffy (1-2, 2.19) makes his second straight start Thursday in place of the injured Bruce Chen. Duffy allowed a run, two hits and walked four over four innings of a 9-2 loss to Detroit on Saturday.

With an off-day Monday, the left-hander could move back to the bullpen after this start, but could return to the rotation if Chen is not ready next weekend. Duffy, who made his first six appearances in relief, is 8-11 with a 4.69 ERA in 32 career starts.
