Cards battle Rockies for three straight (Lineups)

The Saint Louis Cardinals will be sending Joe Kelly to the mound tonight when they look for there third straight win overall; and second straight against the Colorado Rockies.

Kelly will be going up against the Rockies (30-49) Jeff Francis tonight--just hours after hearing the news that ace Chris Carpenter will be having season-ending shoulder surgery in a couple weeks, and will not pitch at all in the 2012 season.


Allen Craig and Matt Holliday will look to stay hot tonight. Both hit home runs in the 9-3 win last night--including two just from Allen Craig. Holliday has been an absolute Rockie-killer for the Cards since leaving his former team.


Here is a quick glimpse at the lineup that manager Mike Matheny put together for the second of this four game series between the two teams;


1. Rafael Furcal (Shortstop)
2. Jon Jay (Centerfield)
3. Matt Holliday (Left Field)
4. Carlos Beltran (Right Field)
5. Allen Craig (First Base)
6. Yadier Molina (Catcher)
7. David Freese (Third Base)
8. Tyler Greene (Second Base)
9. Joe Kelly (Pitcher)
