What Is at Stake
Playing time and 2027 planning. The Cardinals are two games under .500 and out of the wild card picture, and the Giants have been eliminated outright after a collapse that dropped them 26 games under. Roupp has been streaky all year but comes in on a good run, and Busch Stadium against a below-average offense is a favorable spot for him. Mathews is the more interesting name for St. Louis fans, a young left-hander getting innings in the last two weeks.
How to Watch Without Cable
MLB.TV carries the game outside the two home markets. In market, the Cardinals broadcast streams directly and NBC Sports Bay Area streams through the NBC Sports app with a provider login; Fubo and DirecTV Stream carry both regionals locally.
