Wong returns to starting lineup as Cardinals go for statement sweep in Milwaukee

The Cardinals took the caution flag down during Tuesday's game and Wong went racing -- to two hits and two RBIs in two at-bats late in the Cardinals' victory and he's back in the starting lineup again Wednesday. The Cardinals turn to starter Jack Flaherty, the best pitcher in the National League this past month, to try and sweep Milwaukee at Miller Park and move the Brewers 7 1/2 games back in the standings with a month to play.

  • Lane Thomas, struck twice by pitches in two days, is sore and swollen but X-rays taken at the ballpark have not revealed any fractures.
