Will Cardinals' Momentum Overpower Astros at Busch Stadium?
Cardinals' Recent Performance
The St. Louis Cardinals have shown a mixed bag of performances in their recent games, with a notable victory against the Philadelphia Phillies where they secured a 7-0 win. This game highlighted their offensive prowess, as they managed to score seven runs on ten hits without committing any errors. Their pitching was equally impressive, holding the Phillies to just three hits and no runs. However, in another game against the same team, the Cardinals struggled offensively and defensively, resulting in a narrow 1-4 loss.
Despite these fluctuations, one consistent element has been their solid pitching performance. The Cardinals have maintained an average earned run average (ERA) of around 4 percent over recent games and demonstrated strong control with minimal walks allowed per nine innings pitched.
