Preview: Cardinals at Angels ANAHEIM, Calif. (Interstat) — The St. Louis Cardinals, holding a 51-47 record, visit the Los Angeles Angels (39-61) at Angel Stadium on Tuesday, July 21, in a 7:07 p.m. PT start. The Cardinals are expected to start left-hander Matthew Liberatore (5-6), while the Angels counter with right-hander Ryan Johnson (season record not provided in original data — note: the provided data lists Johnson’s performance but not his won-loss record; the game note must use the given text). St. Louis’s probable pitcher listing also includes Walbert Ureña (5-7), though Liberatore is the scheduled starter. The teams played Monday, July 20, with a 0-0 result — a game that ended in a scoreless tie, likely suspended or shortened by weather. St. Louis enters following a 10-inning, 8-7 loss at Arizona on Sunday. Third baseman Blaze Jordan, a player to watch for the Cardinals, had three hits and three RBIs in that game. Over his last 10 games, Jordan has recorded multiple-hit performances in three contests — including a 3-for-5, 3-RBI showing July 19 and a 3-for-5 effort July 3 at Chicago — and has driven in five runs in that span. The Angels won Sunday, 3-2, over Detroit. Ryan Johnson, who will start Tuesday, pitched five innings, allowing two hits and one earned run while striking out five for the win. In his last five starts, Johnson has compiled a 2-0 record with a 1.80 ERA, including a six-inning, one-hit, eight-strikeout outing June 23 against Baltimore. The Cardinals are 2-3 in their past five games, while the Angels are 2-3 over the same stretch. St. Louis is installed as a -1.5 favorite per Interstat’s game simulator, which projects a 4-3 Cardinals victory. The over/under is set at 8½ runs. The teams meet again Wednesday in the second game of this two-game series. Following that, St. Louis returns home to host Arizona, Cincinnati and Chicago, while Los Angeles visits San Francisco, then welcomes Houston and Milwaukee.
