The Phillies and Cardinals will meet six times this month; for now, they're playing at Busch Field, a crucial game for both teams. The Phillies took Monday's game 6-5, and the Cardinals shut them out and took a 2-0 lead on Tuesday. They'll play an intriguing rubber matchup on Wednesday where betting sites have the Phillies, with Wheeler on the mound, as -157 favorites.
Although the Cardinals scored three runs in the bottom of the eighth in Game 1 with RBI doubles from Burlenson and Winn, they fell one run short of tying the lead the Phillies had built with doubles from Schwarber and a stellar performance from Sosa, who went 2-for-3 with three RBIs.
In Game 2, Pallante displayed a polished repertoire of pitches, blanking the Phillies for six innings. The bullpen did its part, inducing Arráez to hit into a crucial double play, and finally, Riley O'Brien came in dominant; this time he didn't get into trouble, recording the final three outs and his 30th save of the year.

Our St. Louis Cardinals vs Philadelphia Phillies Prediction
Between July 1 and 12, Wheeler had three impressive outings, each with double-digit strikeouts, including a 14-strikeout game against the Reds, but since then he has had four more outings, only one of which resulted in a quality start. Even so, he has a healthy 2.69 ERA and a 10-3 record on the year.
Kyle Leahly will pitch for the Cardinals; he's coming off his eighth win of the season, striking out eight Rockies without issuing a walk.
Our prediction for Cardinals vs Phillies is: Under 8 runs.
