On the other side, the Cardinals have their own set of stars shining through. Notably, Alec Burleson and Nolan Arenado have made significant contributions to their team's efforts. Burleson, playing right field, hit an impressive .600 average with a 1.8 OPS in one of the previous games, demonstrating his ability to impact the game significantly. Meanwhile, Arenado has been consistent in his performance at third base, maintaining solid stats across games.
