The red-hot Los Angeles Dodgers, currently in first place in the National League West, look to continue scorching the St. Louis Cardinals pitching staff at Busch Stadium. The Dodgers have won 11 of their last 13 games and are riding a season-high six-game winning streak entering tonight’s game.
Hyun-Jin Ryu returns to the rotation for LA after posting a four-inning save in his first career relief appearance five days ago against these same Cardinals in Dodger Stadium. He takes the slot occupied by Alex Wood who is on the 10-day disabled list.
