The Saint Louis Cardinals and new manager Mike Matheny are a group that like the lineups switched around an awful lot--and for today's game, there are no exceptions.
Entering todays game at 1:15 pm Central Time inside Busch Stadium, Pedro Alvarez and his Pittsburgh Pirates enter the contest just one game behind Cincinnati for first in the NL Central--while the defending World Champions come in at three and a half games behind.
The Cardinals, before there four game win streak last week, haven't been playing close to there best baseball--but with Jake Westbrook on the mound today, will be looking to avoid being swept for the first time this season against the Buccos'. Here is a quick glimpse at the lineup that was put together for the series' finale:
1. Rafael Furcal (Shortstop)
2. Matt Carpenter (First Base)
3. Matt Holliday (Left Field)
4. Carlos Beltran (Right Field)
5. David Freese (Third Base)
6. Yadier Molina (Catcher)
7. Shane Robinson (Centerfield)
8. Tyler Greene (Second Base)
9. Jake Westbrook (Pitcher)
The game, as stated before, will deliver the first pitch at 1:15 pm Central Time and will be televised locally for Cardinals fans on FOX Sports Midwest.
