St. Louis will want to finish the season off strong. Being at home should help things as well but looking at the potential disparity, the Cardinals still want to play well at home.

Friday night it will be Kyle Gibson getting the ball as the starter. The righty is 3-2 over his last five games, sporting a 3.45 ERA. Last season he faced Cleveland twice while with Baltimore, grabbing the win twice and allowed four runs over 12.2 innings of work. If he can channel that success, it could be a positive start.
