NEW YORK (Interstat) — Andre Pallante will take the mound for the St. Louis Cardinals against the New York Yankees on Wednesday night at Yankee Stadium, with the three-game series tied at one game apiece. Pallante, a right-hander, enters with an 11-6 record. The Yankees will counter with right-hander Will Warren, who is 8-5. The forecast calls for 77 degrees and cloudy skies. St. Louis brings a 56-58 record into the series finale. New York is 64-50. The Cardinals won Monday’s slugfest 13-7, but the Yankees answered with a 2-0 shutout Tuesday. Wednesday’s winner takes the series. Two players have emerged as key figures in the matchup. Yankees left-hander Ryan Weathers, the team’s player to watch, threw six scoreless innings Tuesday, allowing four hits and striking out six. Cardinals right-hander Hunter Dobbins, St. Louis’ player to watch, took the loss despite allowing just two earned runs over 6 1/3 innings with four strikeouts. Dobbins has a 2.04 ERA over his past three starts, covering 17 2/3 innings with 13 strikeouts. Weathers has allowed one earned run or fewer in four of his past five starts, striking out 28 over 28 2/3 innings in that span. Neither pitcher is scheduled to start Wednesday, so Pallante and Warren will step into those roles. Pallante will try to steady a Cardinals club that has lost four of its past six. The Yankees have split their last six and will rely on Warren to build on the momentum from Tuesday’s series-evening win. Interstat’s game simulator projects a 5-4 Yankees victory and gives New York a 61.2 percent win probability. New York is installed as a 1.5-run favorite, with the over/under set at 8.5. The Cardinals will open a six-game homestand Friday against Colorado after Wednesday’s game. The Yankees will host Atlanta for a three-game series beginning Friday.
