Hot vs. Cold The Cardinals enter the series on a high note, having won five of their last six games, including a recent 6–4 victory over the Baltimore Orioles. Their offense has been productive, scoring 29 runs over this stretch, while the bullpen has posted a commendable 2.79 ERA. The Rangers on the other hand have been one of the coldest teams in the MLB. Their offense has been an absolute disaster during that stretch, scoring just 22 runs in their past 10 games. Advertisement 2. Pitching Showdown: Liberatore vs. Leiter Cardinals' left-hander Matthew Liberatore has been impressive, not allowing more than two earned runs in his last eight starts and boasts a 2.73 ERA over 59.1 innings this season. Opposing him is Rangers' right-hander Jack Leiter, who holds a 4.17 ERA over eight starts. 3. Managerial Connections The series also features a reunion of sorts, as Rangers' senior advisor Skip Schumaker, a former Cardinals player and bench coach, faces his old team. Schumaker joined the Rangers' front office in November 2024 after managing the Miami Marlins.
