Wednesday night, the Indians will take the diamond against the Cardinals for the final time this year as they try to salvage a victory in this series and avoid being swept. It has not been a fun go of things so far, with the Tribe getting shut out miserably in game one and Corey Kluber having the worst start of his career in game two. The Cardinals are a good team, but it still feels bad to lose.
To finish off this series, the Indians will go with the young Shane Bieber, who is 2-0 with a 2.45 ERA. Bieber will never devastate you with his power, but the rumors of his pinpoint accuracy have been proven true. He’s young and I wonder about his ceiling, but on this day in 2018, Bieber is a better Josh Tomlin in every way. He should give the Indians a chance to win if he is on his game.
To counter the Indians, the Cardinals will hand the ball to Jack Flaherty, who is 3-2 on the season and sports a very nice 2.50 ERA.
First pitch is at 8:15pm EST / 9:15am KST.
Catch you on the other side, Tribe fans
