The New York Yankees will look to stay perfect at home when they end a three-game Interleague series with the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday Night Baseball. Saturday’s 3-2 victory gave the Yankees a 5-0 mark at Yankee Stadium, tied with the 1999 and 2000 teams and just two behind the squad that won 114 regular-season games in 1998. They won yesterday’s one-run game despite striking out 17 times, leaving 12 men on base and going 1-for-13 with runners in scoring position. The Cardinals got nothing going until solo homers in the eighth and ninth innings to make it interesting before losing for the eighth time in 10 games. Cardinals’ starter Carlos Martinez walked eight men and committed two more errors to give the team 10 through its first 11 games. New York’s dominant homestand began when Michael Pineda took a perfect game into the seventh inning earlier in the week against Tampa Bay and he will be up again, opposing St. Louis veteran Adam Wainwright. Matt Holliday (back), who is batting .242 with a homer and five RBIs, was a late scratch Saturday. New York is just 1-for-30 with runners in scoring position over the last three games. Cardinals CF Dexter Fowler is 0-for-9 in the series and 6-for-44 with 14 strikeouts on the year.
Pitchers: Cardinals – Adam Wainwright (0-2, 7.00 ERA) | Yankees – Michael Pineda (1-1, 3.97)
Wainwright’s season has gotten off to a rocky start after he gave up five earned runs and 11 hits in four innings of a 14-6 loss at Washington on Monday. Wainwright needs four strikeouts to become the 20th active pitcher with 1,500 for his career. He has never faced the Yankees but has had success against several of their hitters in the past, as Starlin Castro, Chase Headley, Chris Carter and Matt Holliday are a combined 14-for-68 with no home runs against him.
Pineda allowed two hits and a run in 7.2 brilliant innings of the home opener and he finished with 11 strikeouts to recover from a poor season debut at Tampa Bay five days earlier. The former Seattle Mariner, who has never faced the Cardinals, is 6-3 with a 2.80 ERA in 11 career interleague starts.
[ad id=’54723′]
We could be seeing the end of Adam Wainwright as he struggles to regain his form from the Cardinals’ championship days. St. Louis’ lineup is also struggling as Fowler can’t get anything going out of the leadoff spot. Look for the Yankees to hit Wainwright early and cruise to a win.
Pick: Yankees -140
