JUPITER, Fla.--Sporting a 7-0-3 record as the home team at Roger Dean Stadium, the Cardinals, who play host to the Miami Marlins Saturday night, have a chance to be the first unbeaten major league team in spring training home games dating to 1993, according to research done by the Elias Sports Bureau and Major League Baseball.
The 2009 Milwaukee Brewers have had the best home spring record in that time, going 13-1-2 in 2009. The 2017 Cardinals were among the best at 12-2-2 in that 28-season time frame.
With Saturday's game the next to last at home for the Cardinals this spring, they are putting out what well could be their lineup next Thursday in Cincinnati behind announced first-game starter Jack Flaherty.
