Games of the Day

The Cardinals return to action with a double header against the White Sox in Chicago. Adam Wainwright battle Lucas Giolito in game one. Wainwright pitched well in his only start this season, allowing three hits in five inning while striking out five. Giolito’s control has been off this season compared to his 2019 campaign, and his ERA is up about a run due to the walks.

The Indians send ace Shane Bieber against the Tigers and Spencer Turnbull. Neiter pitcher lost this season, Bieber 3-0 with a 1.63 ERA, Turnbull 2-0 with a 2.00 ERA. Bieber’s strength is his high strikeout rate. Turnbull’s strength is keeping the ball in the park. Bieber leads the AL in K per nine innings, and Turnbull is an inning short of qualifying for the lead in HR per 9 innings.
