Just shy of his 41st birthday, Adam Wainwright continues to excel for the St. Louis Cardinals.
He’s also been pretty solid against the Chicago Cubs, as of late.
Set to make his 450th appearance, Wainwright aims to help the surging Cardinals extend their season-high winning streak to nine games in the opener of Tuesday’s doubleheader against the host Cubs.
Wainwright (9-8, 3.11 ERA), who turns 41 on Aug. 30, ranks among the major league leaders in ERA and innings (150 1/3) this season, and is 3-0 with a 2.12 ERA in his last five starts. He yielded just one run over 16 innings of his last two, and three hits without a walk, while striking out seven over seven stellar frames, during St. Louis’ 13-0 home rout of Colorado on Thursday.
