Although there is nowhere near as much mystique surrounding inter-league matchups as there used to be, it doesn’t make the games any less interesting. The Orioles have not played the St. Louis Cardinals since 2017, a three-game set at Camden Yards in which the O’s took two. It will be the Orioles doing the traveling this time around as they head to Busch Stadium for a three-game set.
The Cardinals enter the series with a record of 16-12, good for second place in the NL Central. Oliver Marmol’s team has been as consistent as it comes.
