 Sonny Gray will take him on for the Cardinals 9-6 with a 3.34 earned run average for the season. Sonny, of course, got out to that great start. His last seven have not been quite as good as his first 10, but the earned run average still is at 3.8, and he struck out better than a batter per inning and just about five strikeouts for every walk. Gray for St. Louis, Elder for Atlanta, pregame 525 Central around the network this evening.
