After 11 straight games against NL West opponents, the Rockies finally get to venture out of the division to host the St. Louis Cardinals in a three-game series starting tonight at Coors Field.
The NL Central first-place Cardinals (60-48) enter the series with a two-game lead over the Brewers and having won nine of their last 10 games, including a three-game sweep of the Yankees. Colorado (48-63) is 3-7 in its last 10 games and is currently in last place in the NL West, 28.5 games back of the first-place Dodgers and 12.
