The NL Pitcher of the Month for May will take the mound tonight for the Cards (that's fun to say). Wellemeyer is 6-1 with a 3.16 ERA and a 1.14 WHIP.
Lannan, a lefty, will start for the Nationals. He is 4-5, but has a relatively low ERA (3.52).
"They gave me an opportunity and I’m going to make the best of it. I’m not trying to think too much out there, just pitching." -Todd Wellemeyer on his success with St Louis.
