St. Louis at New York

img7:10 PM Eastern

It's the third straight road game for St. Louis off a 3-1 loss here yesterday, and starter Jordan Hicks (4.15 ERA) walks too many batters (12 in 24+ innings). The Cardinals have lost six of eight against a right-handed starter and face one of the best in Max Scherzer (2.66 ERA), who has a 55-11 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 44 innings with batters hitting .188 off him. New York is 20-7 versus righty starters this season, plus 13-2 after a defeat, so back home field with their ace. Play New York.
