What happened: The Arizona Diamondbacks and St. Louis Cardinals are set to continue their series in St. Louis with the matchup even at 1-1. The two clubs split their first two meetings, each decided by a single run. Both sides return to the field with the series deadlocked.

Why it matters: A tied series adds weight to the next meeting for two clubs separated by little in the standings. St. Louis sits at 42-34 while Arizona arrives at 39-39, leaving a thin margin in a set that has already produced two one-run games. The next result will shape momentum as both teams work through a crowded stretch of the schedule.
