Cardinals look for sweep
The St. Louis Cardinals are looking for a season-opening sweep when they play the Philadelphia Phillies in the final game of the three-game series Thursday.
St. Louis brings a 2-0 overall mark (0-0 in the division) into this game versus a Philadelphia team carrying a 0-2 record.
The Cardinals know Philadelphia will be looking to prove oddsmakers, who made them home underdogs at -125, made a mistake in this one. The total opened at 10.5.
Last time out, at Citizens Bank Park against Philadelphia, the Cardinals as favorites defeated the Phillies 4-3. That game was an under play.
It's usually a safe bet that St. Louis will get men on base as they rank top three in the league with 13 hits per game on the season. Philadelphia's pitchers need to keep this group in check to have a chance today.
STL: J. Marquis Rhp(0-0, NA)
PHI: C. Lidle Rhp(0-0, NA)
