Lineup and How to Watch the Miami Marlins and St. Louis Cardinals from Busch Stadium
The Miami Marlins are still trying to get off the skid.
At 0-9, the Marlins are the last winless team in Major League Baseball. And today represents a great chance at getting into the win column, as Miami has the uber-talented Max Meyer on the bump, facing off against Cardinals starter Kyle Gibson.
Let’s do the dang thing, yeah?
Lineups for the Miami Marlins and St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday, April 7th
Here's how the Marlins will line up for the contest:
2B Luis Arraez
1B Josh Bell
3B Jake Burger
DH Bryan De La Cruz
CF Jazz Chisholm Jr.
SS Tim Anderson
RF Jesús Sánchez
LF Nick Gordon
C Christian Bethancourt
Meyer is making his second start of the season, a week after holding the Los Angeles Angels to two runs on two hits across five innings, walking two and striking out four. There’s not a lot of familiarity here for the 25-year-old Meyer; no active St. Louis Cardinals hitter has faced him in the majors.
Here's how the Cardinals will line up for game two of the series:
LF Brandon Donovan
1B Paul Goldschmidt
2B Nolan Gorman
3B Nolan Arenado
C Willson Contreras
DH Alec Burleson
RF Jordan Walker
SS Masyn Winn
CF Victor Scott II
The 36-year-old Gibson is one of the many veteran pitchers brought in to provide a stable base to the rotation, and he did more than that in his first start against the San Diego Padres: Seven innings of four-hit, two-run ball with two walks and four strikeouts, although he did give up two homers in the outing. Shortstop Tim Anderson’s plenty familiar with Gibson; in 25 at-bats, Anderson’s taken him deep once and is batting .280 with a .720 OPS against the righty.
