First pitch is scheduled for 1:10 p.m. at American Family Field.
After snapping a four-game losing skid with a tandem effort of offensive outburst and pitching dominance, the Cardinals can flip the script and win the first series with a division opponent of the season today.
With a right-hander back on the mound, the Cardinals will again flip the lineup to accommodate the righty-lefty matchups better, meaning Brendan Donovan, Nolan Gorman and Alec Burleson return to the lineup.
Fresh off of hitting his 300th career home run, Nolan Arenado has been given a "half day off" and will serve as the designated hitter.
