Cardinals -115
The Cardinals are 8-2 in Carpenter's last 10 starts. In his last three he has gone 21 innings giving up just 17 hits while carrying a minuscule whip of 0.95 and an era of 2.57. The Cardinals right now are red hot as a team. They are 9-2 in their last 11 games. Rusch has pitched very well for the Cubs so far this year but The Cardinals have had a good history against him outside of the last game in which they faced him losing 7-1. The two games prior to that the Cardinals got to him in a big way beating him 9-1 and 7-0. In the 9-1 game Rusch lasted just one inning giving up 6 hits and 8 earned runs and in the 7-0 game he went 5 innings giving up 11 hits and 7 earned runs. I look for the Cardinals to get to him again today and start this road trip out with a victory.
