The Baltimore Orioles go for the series sweep on the road against the St. Louis Cardinals on Thursday.
It’s a battle of the birds when the St. Louis Cardinals try to avoid getting swept on Thursday afternoon in the only series of the season against the Baltimore Orioles. Baltimore dominated the opener on Tuesday, 13-1, and came back with a much closer 8-7 victory in Game 2 to win the series. The Cardinals were competing for an NL Wild Card spot, but this recent slide is going to make things very difficult heading into the final month of the regular season. The Cardinals have lost five straight and six of their last seven, falling to two games under. 500. St. Louis is 66-68 overall and 32-36 at home. St. Louis is now six games back of the third and final NL Wild Card spot held by the San Diego Padres. The Orioles are going for their third straight win and their fifth in their last six games. Baltimore is trying to finish the season on a high note and get back to .500. The Orioles come into this series finale with a 65-68 record and a 31-34 away mark. Trevor Rogers will get the start for Baltimore in the finale. The lefty is 9-8 with a 4.14 ERA in 132.2 innings. The Cardinals have yet to announce their starter for today’s game.

The Orioles got off to a quick start on Wednesday in Game 2, scoring the first seven runs of the night through the first two innings. Baltimore scored five in the first, highlighted by a three-run shot by Leody Taveras, and then Pete Alonso hit a two-run shot in the second. Fortunately for the Cardinals, the Orioles put it into cruise control after that. Nolan Gorman got the rally started by hitting a homer in the second inning, but St. Louis was really fueled by six runs in the fifth inning to tie the game. Baltimore wasn’t able to score again until the top of the ninth inning when Christian Encarnacion-Strand hit a tie-breaking RBI double. Andrew Kittredge closed out the ninth for his seventh save of the season.
