BALTIMORE — Two pitchers who desperately need to throw deep into games with effectiveness will start on Saturday afternoon at Camden Yards.
The St. Louis Cardinals will start right-hander Adam Wainwright (7-4, 4.73) against Baltimore left-hander Wade Miley (2-4, 3.97), who has struggled to provide innings for manager Buck Showalter. The Orioles (32-34) have dropped eight of nine after an 11-2 loss Friday to the Cardinals (31-35), who snapped an eight-game losing streak on the road.
Miley has not gone past the third inning in his past two outings against the Pittsburgh Pirates and Chicago White Sox.
