Game Preview
A pair of National League teams resume their series on the diamond in the Mile-High City, hoping to win. The St. Louis Cardinals are on the road Tuesday night, playing the middle game of a three-game series against the Colorado Rockies.
Tonight, St. Louis seeks to rebound from a difficult sequence of games. The Cardinals lost two straight series after winning their first against the Blue Jays. Atlanta won 3-0 before Milwaukee won two of three. Having said that, St. Louis has one of the most impressive rosters in the league.
Despite losing in the Wild Card round last season, the Cardinals are expected to be a significant contender for the title this season. Given last year’s success versus Colorado, tonight presents an ideal opportunity for St. Louis to rebound after losses in five of their last six games. The Cardinals did lose the lone series in Colorado, but rebounded to sweep at home and win the season series 4-2 overall.
Tonight is southpaw Steven Matz’s second start of the season. In his debut season with the Cardinals, Matz struggled. He only made ten starts. Despite a strong 5-3 record, Matz’s 5.25 ERA left a lot to be desired. Nonetheless, he posted a remarkable 10.1 K/9 and carried that success into his first start of the season.
