After taking one on the chin on Tuesday night in Denver, the St. Louis Cardinals struck back yesterday against the Colorado Rockies to maintain their cushion over the Milwaukee Brewers in the National League Central.
To head into this weekend's series with the Brew Crew assured of ending the week still in first place as long as they don't get swept at Busch Stadium, the Cards must prevail in the finale of their series at Coors Field this afternoon.
Colorado racked up 16 runs and 22 hits in an 11-run win on Tuesday evening, but St. Louis turned the tables yesterday as they tallied n ine runs and 18 hits in their 9-5 win.
What does today's matchup have in store? Will we see a third straight over, or will Dakota Hudson and German Marquez keep the bats quiet this afternoon?
