Rating: 8*
The St. Louis Cardinals have struggled home at Busch Stadium and suffered a 7-2 loss to the Dodgers on Saturday. I like the Dodgers in the rubber match of the set on Sunday night baseball.
Scott Kazmir (8-3, 4.30 ERA) takes the ball for Los Angeles. He's won six consecutive decisions and allowed just one run and four hits while fanning eight hitters in seven innings at Washington his last time out. He's 2-0 with a 3.20 ERA in three career starts versus the Cardinals who are 1-7 in their last eight home games vs. a left-handed starter.
The Cardinals turn to rookie Mike Mayers (NR) who will make his Major Leagues debut. He has impressed in the minors, splitting the season between Memphis and Double-A Springfield while going a combined 8-5 with a 2.62 ERA in 18 starts. This is the big leagues though, and the Dodgers will be encouraged by their offensive display on yesterday's win.
Dodgers are 9-1 in their last 10 after allowing two runs or fewer in their previous game, Cardinals are 2-6 in their last eight after scoring two runs or fewer in their previous game.
