It is going to be a difficult task for the Yankees in this one, as St. Louis has better pitching. The Yankees have also suffered when they surrender 5 runs or more in a game, where they are 1-18 on the season. Huroki Kuroda has not been the same pitcher this season, and at age 40, he may have little left in the tank. The Yankees have surrendered 49 runs in his last seven starts. Shelby Miller is having a strong season at 6-3 with a 3.19 ERA, and the only Yankees to have faced him are a combined 0-8, and New York has long struggled vs. pitchers they are seeing for the first time. The Yankees are just 3-14 in their last 17 as a road dog, and just 1-9 in Kuroda's last 10 road starts. The Cards boast a 57-19 mark in their last 76 vs. a right-handed starter, which clinches it for me - play on St. Louis.
