Cardinals Lineup

The struggling Paul Goldschmidt remains in the No. 3 hole, while Tyler O'Neill is in left field and cleaning up. There will be no Yadier Molina today, as Matt Wieters will handle catching duties due to Molina's thumb injury.

Daniel Ponce de Leon, who is sporting a 2.80 ERA on the year, will get the start. This is just his sixth start for the Cards, and he's also made three relief appearances this year, recording a 10.4 K/9 across 35.1 innings.

Pirates Lineup

After a brief absence, Adam Frazier, Colin Moran, and Corey Dickerson will all return to the Pittsburgh lineup. Hitting third is center fielder Starling Marte, while first baseman and MLB RBI leader Josh Bell will hit cleanup.

Trevor Williams, who is 3-3 with a 5.17 ERA on the season, is slated to start for the Pirates. He's logged 13 starts this year, striking out 61 batters across 76.2 innings of work.
