The Rockies were shut down on Friday night by Shelby Miller who tossed a one hit complete game shutout and did not allow a base runner after Eric Young Jr led off the game with a broken bat single. The Rockies pitching staff did their job as they held the Cards to only three runs, but as they say you can't win if you don't score. The Rockies will be looking to get more offense today against the Cardinals but the task will be equally as difficult as they will be facing veteran Adam Wainwright who has a 4-2 record with a 2.72 ERA on the season. The Rockies will counter with Jhoulys Chacin who is 3-1 with a 2.56 ERA. Michael Cuddyer is battling a disc issue in his neck and it will keep him out of the lineup again today for the third day in a row. Eric Young Jr will get another start in right field. The Rockies lineup for today is as follows:
1. Eric Young Jr, RF
2. Dexter Fowler, CF
3. Carlos Gonzales, LF
4. Troy Tulowitzki, SS
5. Todd Helton, 1B
6. Nolan Arenado, 3B
7. Reid Brignac, 2B
8. Yorvit Torrealba, C
9. Jhoulys Chacin, P
The St Louis Cardinals lineup is:
1. Matt Carpenter, 2B
2. Jon Jay, CF
3. Matt Holliday, LF
4. Allen Craig, RF
5. Yadier Molina, C
6. Matt Adams, 1B
7. David Freese, 3B
