Padres on Deck @ Cardinals, Game 3 of 4 (Series 0-2)

San Diego (37-60) at St. Louis (55-43), 12:55 p.m., FOX/ 1090/105.7

ST. LOUIS (Ticker) -- Albert Pujols isn't the only member of the St. Louis Cardinals to contribute to the offense. Pujols and the Cardinals go for their fourth straight win on Saturday against the San Diego Padres.

Pujols has posted a .440 (11-for-25) batting average over his last six games. Surprisingly, he has one homer and three RBI this month. However, the rest of the Cardinals lineup has stepped up. St. Louis has 39 home runs since June 19 - the most in the majors over that span. The team pounded four solo homers during the series-opening win against the Padres and added two more blasts while logging 17 hits on Friday en route to an 11-7 victory. Rick Ankiel has been providing the power for the Cardinals with three home runs and eight RBI over his last five games. Ankiel, a converted pitcher, has 22 home runs and 54 RBI in his first full season as an outfielder in the majors.

Todd Wellemeyer (7-4, 4.04 ERA) hopes the hit parade continues when he takes the mound. Wellemeyer has lost his last three decisions and is looking for his first win since June 5. Randy Wolf (6-9, 4.66), who is 1-5 with a 7.06 ERA over his last six starts, counters for the Padres.
