 St. Louis and Pittsburgh play a three-game set, their last series against one another this year. The Cardinals are 12-4 against the Pirates this year and have won the season series each of the previous five seasons. St. Louis has scored 6.83 runs per game in PNC Park this season, their most in any ballpark.

 The Cardinals had an MLB-high 133 errors last year but have the fewest errors in baseball this season with 59. No team in major league history has gone from worst to first in total errors in consecutive seasons.

 The Pirates dropped two of three against the Marlins but are 9-4 in their last 13 games after starting the second half 8-30. Over their 13-game hot stretch, Pittsburgh is batting .318 as a team with 21 home runs and a .906 OPS.

 Yadier Molina enters the series on a 12-game hit streak, the longest active streak in the majors. Molina entered play on Aug. 23 slashing .253/.285/.352 but has a slash line of .435/.490/.783 since starting his streak. He has as many homers (four) in his last 10 games as he had in his first 83 games of the year.

 Bryan Reynolds is batting .267 and slugging .356 against the Cardinals this year, compared to a .340 batting average and .559 slugging percentage against all other opponents. Since Aug. 1, Reynolds is second in the majors with 47 hits (Anthony Rendon, Was, 49).

 The Cardinals took three of four from the Giants with Paul DeJong hitting two home runs in the series. His 26 home runs this season are the most ever by a Cardinals shortstop, breaking his own previous record of 25 in 2017.

HP - Barrett, 1B - Ortiz, 2B - Tumpane, 3B - Barksdale

The Pittsburgh Pirates, on paper, looked like a good team for St. Louis to face this weekend as the Cardinals attempt to pad their lead in the National League Central.
The Pirates had just lost two of three to the Miami Marlins, owners of the worst record in the NL. The Cardinals had won eight in a row against the Pirates as well as all six games at PNC Park in Pittsburgh, site of this series.

Pirates look to trip up Cardinals again

PITTSBURGH (AP)  Marcell Ozuna knew he found something in the first inning. He battled for eight pitches before getting ahold of a fastball, only to see it fly right to Pirates left fielder Bryan Reynolds.
The next time up, Ozuna put it all together. He hit a three-run homer to break out of his slump, and Adam Wainwright pitched seven strong innings, to help the St. Louis Cardinals extend their lead atop the NL Central with a 10-1 win over Pittsburgh on Saturday night.
