00:02 - No official lines up for this next game here.
00:05 That's the Diamondbacks and the Cardinals.
00:07 By the way, 110 degrees at first pitch
00:09 in the desert at night.
00:10 Thank goodness that they do have air conditioning
00:13 and a roof out there at Chase Field.
00:15 But I don't think that's gonna stop
00:17 or slow down the heating up of the bats tonight.
00:19 'Cause if we're looking on one side of the equation
00:21 for the St. Louis Cardinals just came off
00:23 a disastrous series against the Cubs.
00:25 Looks like the possibility of them throwing
00:27 Wainwright is high and also Ryan Nelson here
00:30 on the Arizona Diamondbacks.
00:31 Unconfirmed on both sides, but both of these lineups
00:34 should be able to do damage tonight.
00:36 And if we're setting lines, it's gotta be around what?
00:39 Nine and a half or 10 as a total in this game?
00:42 We probably figure.
00:43 - In the first five with these two gas cans out there.
00:49 You gotta be kidding me.
00:50 Listen, I mean, Wainwright did take a couple
00:53 of weeks off there.
00:55 He got a bunch of cortisone shots.
00:57 He's been thrown in the bullpen.
00:58 He says that the shoulder finally feels good,
01:01 but the numbers can't possibly feel good
01:04 when you look at what he has done this year.
01:06 He's allowed 84 hits, 19 walks, 51 and two thirds
01:10 and 11 starts.
01:12 Owen three with a over 19 ERA in the last three
01:17 before he got shelved there to rest the shoulder.
01:20 I, you know, he's 41 years old.
01:22 What he's got left in a tank is no longer there.
01:24 He's running on E.
01:26 So they said already, if he goes 65 pitches is his limit,
01:31 which means he may not make it out of the second inning,
01:34 which also means that the bullpens are gonna get involved.
01:37 And I'm kind of with you.
01:38 I don't care what the number is.
01:40 I'm going up and over both the game total
01:43 and the Diamondbacks team total.
