"Another series win" - Braves
Pitching in tonight's finale are two Rookie of the Year candidates, Matthew Liberatore for the Cardinals and Spencer Strider for the Braves.
Liberatore has had two speeds this season. He either shuts out or is lit up. He put up some decent numbers in Triple-A Memphis. However, due to the injuries St. Louis has been dealing with, he was called up earlier than anticipated.
Strider has given up just one run in his last 12 innings pitched. He'll try to continue that streak tonight.

Two young studs are taking the mound tonight. Both could be MLB staples for the next decade. The Cardinals are hoping to get the best out of Libretore tonight, but that isn't likely with how the Braves are hitting. Runs will come in this game, but likely not in the first inning.
No Runs in the First Inning (+108)
St. Louis Cardinals vs. Atlanta Braves Prediction
Three days ago, most bettors would not believe the Braves were going to sweep the Cardinals, and some might not even believe it today. However, with how these two teams are playing, it's hard to think St. Louis has any chance tonight. Spencer Strider should pick up his fifth win.
Atlanta -1.5 (-118)
