SIGN UP HERE The Phillies had been scheduled to face two-time Cy Young winner Jacob deGrom before the rainout. The Phils lost the first three games of the series to the Mets and scored just four runs so missing deGrom isn't a bad thing.
The Phils went 1-5 on the road trip to Atlanta and New York. They are 6-6 on the season.
The Cardinals have lost four of their last five games and are also 6-6.
Here are the pitching matchups for the series:
