Cardinals vs. Pirates, Game 29

The Pirates are only 2 games away from .500 after their sweep of the Cubs. However, they face their best opponent of the year as the St. Louis Cardinals come to town. The challenge starts right away as the Cardinals send Chris Carpenter to the hill. Carpenter has been spectacular so far this year and is unbeaten. The Cardinals are 5-1 in games that Carpenter starts, so it won't be easy for the Pirates to make that 5-2. There seems to be no better time for us to try it though, we have been hitting the ball well and pitching very well, so bring on the Cards. Let's Go Bucs!
