  "account": "The St. Louis Cardinals are set to conclude their season this weekend in Milwaukee against the Milwaukee Brewers. The two teams are situated at opposite ends of the standings, but the young Cardinals may still manage to finish ahead of the division-leading Brewers. The following pitching matchups have been scheduled for the weekend:\n\nFriday: Michael McGreevy (right-handed pitcher, 7-9 record, 3.84 ERA, 113 strikeouts) will face off against Robert Gasser (left-handed pitcher, 5-5 record, 4.01 ERA, 94 strikeouts).\n\nSaturday: Quinn Mathews (left-handed pitcher, 2-3 record, 3.65 ERA, 39 strikeouts) will take on Dustin May (right-handed pitcher, 7-9 record, 4.67 ERA, 139 strikeouts).\n\nSunday: Andre Pallante (right-handed pitcher, 12-8 record, 3.61 ERA, 106 strikeouts) will pitch against Jacob Misiorowski (right-handed pitcher, 15-5 record, 1.86 ERA, 247 strikeouts).\n\nRobert Gasser has won his last three starts, including a strong 7-inning win against the Baltimore Orioles on September 19, where he only allowed 3 hits and no earned runs. Dustin May also has a 1-0 record in his last three starts but only threw two innings against the Phillies on September 22, where he gave up 2 hits and 2 earned runs. His last victory was on September 11 against the Reds, where he pitched 7 innings and allowed just 2 hits and no earned runs. Jacob Misiorowski has also won his last three outings, including a recent 3-inning, 4-strikeout performance against the Orioles on September 20.\n\nThe Brewers are on an impressive 7-3 run in their last 10 games and are poised to enter the playoffs as the #1 seed in the National League. Meanwhile, the Cardinals have struggled in their last 10 games, with a 4-6 record. This weekend's game against the Brewers could be a highlight for the Cardinals, particularly if Alec Burleson finishes the season as the MLB RBI leader. Burleson currently leads with 113 RBI's, with Pete Alonzo and Sal Stewart trailing at 110. Jordan Walker has been struggling with his power numbers, hitting only 28 home runs so far this season. A surge of long balls from Walker could significantly impact the Cardinals' performance this weekend. However, with Thursday's loss to Pittsburgh, the Cardinals are guaranteed to have another losing season, which they have already come to terms with. The focus for the team now is on rebuilding, and the successful completion of the season in Milwaukee will be a positive step forward.",
  "summary": "Well, this is it. The St. Louis Cardinals season will wrap up the season this weekend in Milwaukee against the Brewers. Two teams reaching completely opposite destinations, but perhaps the young blood of the St. Louis Cardinals can finish strong to show the division leaders that we’re coming for their crown someday. Here are the […]",
