St. Louis Cardinals vs Seattle Mariners Prediction: Mariners are expected to win this encounter

In Major League Baseball, the St. Louis Cardinals will play the Seattle Mariners at Busch Stadium. The two teams come into this series on a winning note. How will this game end?

The St. Louis Cardinals have been decent in recent series and will come into this one hoping to keep things rolling. In their last series, the St. Louis Cardinals played the Milwaukee Brewers, and they won. In the opener, the St. Louis Cardinals started with a six-run defeat in a 9-3 encounter. However, their last two encounters saw the St. Louis Cardinals secure 4-7 and 2-3 wins. However, the St. Louis Cardinals head into this game with a 71-69 record, leaving them seated 9th in the National League.

Seattle Mariners will hope to start this series strong after a less-than-impressive opener against the Oakland Athletics earlier this week. In that series, the Seattle Mariners lost 5-4 and 3-2 in the first two games. However, in the last two games, this team stepped up, winning 3-16 in game three, and they pulled off a 4-6 win in the finale. The Seattle Mariners have a 71-70 record heading into this game, leaving them seated 8th in the American League. 

This should be a close contest, as the two teams do have a chance. To me, however, the Seattle Mariners look like the team to go with. Looking at how strong they were against the A’s, I believe they could be worth betting on. In the meantime, the St. Louis Cardinals have been brilliant offensively, and I expect them to score a number of runs here.
