Cards' Wacha heating up, eyes sweep of Rockies | |
The St. Louis Cardinals are surging at the right time, and pitcher Michael Wacha is showing he belongs for the stretch run. The Cardinals, after a 6-0 victory over the visiting Colorado Rockies on Saturday night, have won six of their last seven and increased their National League Central lead over the Chicago Cubs to 1 1/2 games. They have won the first three of a four-game weekend series against Colorado. Wacha, back in the rotation, takes the mound Sunday to go for the sweep. MORE | |
