Coming off a game where he obliterated a three-run home run to Big Mac Land, Adam Wainwright and the St. Louis Cardinals will face the pesky Pittsburgh Pirates Saturday afternoon.
Wainwright has had a rough go about early on. He’s just (2-3) on the year with an ERA hovering around 7.00. However, his last two starts have been better than the first four. He hasn’t exactly had ideal run support this season.
In 2014, Wainwright’s last full season, he went (2-2) with a 2.38 ERA in five starts against the Pirates.
The Cardinals couldn’t get over the hump Friday night against the Pirates and Francisco Liriano.
