The St. Louis Cardinals have covered the 1.5-point spread in three of their last four games. Will this trend continue into Saturday’s ballgame vs. the New York Mets? The Cardinals banked on a three-run homer by Alec Burleson to capture their third win in four games on Friday. The win moved St. Louis two games below .500 with a 12-14 slate. The Mets suffered their seventh home loss, dropping to 13-12 overall.

Pitchers Matchup:

Right-handed pitcher Sonny Gray (2-1, 1.04 ERA with 23 strikeouts) is scheduled for his fourth start for the Cardinals this season. In his last mound appearance on April 22, Gray struck out 12 batters and gave up two runs in a losing effort against the Milwaukee Brewers, 2-0. Right-handed pitcher Adrian Houser (0-2, 7.45 ERA with 12 strikeouts) will make his fifth start for the Mets. House seeks to redeem himself after allowing eight runs through four innings in a 10-0 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers on April 21.
