Andre Pallante starts for the Cards against the Brewers this afternoon. The St. Louis Cardinals are getting two players back as the MLB regular season nears its end. They activated starting pitcher Steven Matz from the 60-day injured list. The lefty was 1-and-2 with a 6.18 ERA in six starts when he went on the injured list with a back issue in late April. The team also reinstated outfielder Michael Siani off the 10-day IL. He had been dealing with an oblique injury. He is batting .256 with two home runs and 18 RBI in 101 games this season.

The Chicago Cubs smoked the Washington Nationals 14-1 at Nationals Park to complete a sweep. Isaac Paredes [ e-sock puh-ray-dess ] was two-for-four with three RBI. Nico Hoerner and Cody Bellinger each drove in two runs. Starting pitcher Jordan Wicks got the win with five innings of one-run ball. The Cubs have won six straight and are 71-and-66. They sit three-and-a-half games back of the Atlanta Braves for the final playoff spot in the National League. Jameson Taillon starts for the Northsiders against Pittsburgh tonight.

The Chicago White Sox are on a ten-game losing streak following a 2-0 loss to the New York Mets at Guaranteed Rate Field. Garrett Crochet was charged with his tenth loss after striking out eight and allowing a run on three hits in three-and-a-third innings. The White Sox are in last place in the AL Central with 31 wins and a franchise-record 107 losses. The Southsiders send Chris Flexen to the mound against the Orioles this afternoon.
