Key Matchup Considerations


Facing the Reds at home presents unique challenges for the Cardinals as they navigate Cincinnati's hitter-friendly environment at Great American Ball Park.

The Cardinals will need their pitchers to maintain control and avoid giving up long balls in this setting while capitalizing on any offensive opportunities that arise from playing in such a conducive environment for hitters.
