The Rangers have won eight of their last 10 overall. They are 18-8 on their home games this season and 15-5 as home favorites. Left-hander Martin Perez (6-1, 4.43 ERA) was lit up at Detroit in his last start, but note that Perez is perfect 3-0 with an ERA of 1.93 in three home starts this season.

The Cardinals have won only one of their last six games and three of their last 10. Cards righty Adam Wainwright (2-1, 6.15 ERA) has made five starts this year, and did not look particularly sharp in any of them.
