Cards try to deal Marlins another bad hand
Baseball Betting Lines
07/17/2007 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The St. Louis Cardinals will attempt to record their
longest win streak in over a month when the defending world champions resume a
three-game set with the Florida Marlins tonight at Dolphin Stadium.
After smacking a season-high six home runs in a 10-2 rout of Philadelphia on
Sunday, the Cardinals used the long ball again to claim last night's series
opener. Chris Duncan belted a two-run homer in the first inning and Adam
Kennedy added a solo shot later in the game to lift St. Louis to a 5-3
victory.
Duncan finished 2-for-3 with three RBI on the evening, while Kennedy collected
three hits for the Cardinals, who also received a solid performance on the
mound from starting pitcher Braden Looper.
Looper (7-7) worked 6 1/3 innings and allowed just two runs on five hits to
earn his first win since May 24. Jason Isringhausen notched his 18th save with
a scoreless ninth.
Florida starter Byung-Hyun Kim (4-5) struggled with his command, issuing a
season-high seven walks over the first six innings. The Korean right-hander
allowed all five St. Louis runs on eight hits to suffer the loss.
The Marlins, who had won five of seven coming in, received a solo home run
from Miguel Cabrera, the All-Star slugger's fourth in three games. Jeremy
Hermida went 2-for-4 with an RBI single in the loss.
St. Louis, which has not won three games in a row since June 3-6, will give
the ball tonight to Brad Thompson. The right-hander has compiled a 6-3 record
and a 5.10 earned run average on the season while shuffling between the
rotation and the bullpen.
Thompson threw two innings in relief in Friday's lopsided loss to the Phillies
and was rocked for eight hits, including a pair of homers, and four runs
(three earned). He was more effective in his latest start, when he gave up
four runs over seven innings in a July 4 no decision against Arizona.
The swingman has made three previous relief appearances versus Florida and has
no record and a 3.86 ERA in 4 2/3 innings over those games. Thompson has
posted a 4-2 record with a 4.92 ERA as a starter so far this season.
Florida has recalled rookie Rick Vanden Hurk to start tonight's contest. The
Dutch native will be making his first major league appearance since he
defeated Kansas City on June 16. Vanden Hurk surrendered six runs (five
earned) in six innings but benefited from a wealth of run support in a 9-8
Marlins' win.
Vanden Hurk brings an ugly 8.38 ERA in six starts and one relief outing at the
big-league level into this evening's game, but the 22-year-old has shown
promise in his limited action. He allowed one hit over six scoreless frames to
beat Atlanta in early June and has struck out 32 batters in 29 innings with
the Marlins this year.
He has not fared well in four starts at Dolphin Stadium, however, posting an
0-2 and a 12.27 ERA while yielding 22 hits in 14 2/3 innings.
The Cardinals have taken seven of their last eight meetings with Florida and
are an impressive 8-2 in South Florida since the start of the 2004 campaign.
St. Louis swept a three-game set at Dolphin Stadium last season.
