The St. Louis Cardinals and Cleveland Indians are playing live on the MLB schedule on Thursday and the interleague game from Progressive Field starts at 12:10 pm ET for the series finale and has Michael Wacha against Trevor Bauer after the amazing performance from Corey Kluber in the last matchup between the teams.
The cardinals have been one of the best teams in baseball this season and the Indians have been one of the worst and now they will finish off the series. The Cardinals have 23 wins this season and the Indians have just 12, but they were able to get the victory 2-0 after Kluber had a great game. Wacha comes in 5-0 this season with a 2.09 ERA and he has pitched well for the Cardinals with Adam Wainwright out.
Wacha comes in after putting up a good start in his last outing, going for six scoreless innings against the Pirates and not getting a decision in the 14-inning win. The Cardinals have not played great in Wahca's interleague starts, as they have gone 0-5 and Wacha has not won a game and has taken three losses on his record in his career in those games. The team is now hoping to turn it around and they do it against Bauer, who has pitched well in interleague matchups.
The Indians were one of the savvy picks in baseball to win a wild card spot this season, but they have a major hole to dig out of in the tough AL Central division. Corey Kluber had a fantastic game for the Indians against the Cardinals on Wednesday, striking out 18 batters and finally getting his first win of the season. Kluber was 0-5 and got banged around over his first stretch of the year and now he comes in looking to get on a hot streak after stealing the Cy Young from Felix Hernandez.
