Wolf vs. Wainwright
It’s a beautiful day in St. Louis, but the Brewers won’t be able to enjoy the weather. They’ll be staring down Cardinals starter Adam Wainwright, who is 11-0 in his 12 home starts this season and is riding a Major League-record 27 consecutive quality starts in home games. He’s already pitched a pair of complete games against Milwaukee this year.
Here’s how the Brewers will try to reverse the trend:
Rickie Weeks 2B
Corey Hart RF
Ryan Braun LF
Prince Fielder 1B
Casey McGehee 3B
Lorenzo Cain CF
Alcides Escobar SS
George Kottaras C
Randy Wolf LHP
Very interesting that Cain is in the lineup. Manager Ken Macha apparently isn’t afraid to expose the rookie outfielder to one of the league’s nastiest starting pitchers.
