The Cardinals are getting their ace back, as right-hander Jack Flaherty has been activated from the 60-day injured list, while left-hander Wade LeBlanc is going on the 10-day injured list after an early exit against the Pirates.
A clutch double from Tommy Edman was enough to lift the Cards over the Twins as Wade LeBlanc and the Cards’ bullpen put together nine innings of one-run ball in the win.
Since Wade Leblanc made his first start of the year for the St. Louis Cardinals, every starting pitcher has made a strong start. In the last six games, the Cardinals rotation has allowed eight earned runs in 35 innings.
