TRUST US: this will be the final time this year that On the Field will be this thin. The real fun begins with the Wednesday edition.
Sunday: The Astros close out their weekend set at the Cardinals when Wade Miley (8-4, 3.18 ERA) takes the mound for Houston against St. Louis right-hander Dakota Hudson (10-4, 3.61 ERA). AT&T Sportsnet Southwest will host the pregame show at 12:30pm that will lead into the first pitch at 1:15pm.
Monday: Consider this Monday the calm before the storm, as it is the final week before high school athletics return with both football and volleyball (which begins its first practices on Thursday) prepare for the upcoming season. There will be a host of camps throughout the area, marking the final camps of the summer.
Tuesday: It’s aces high in Cleveland as Houston anchor Justin Verlander (13-4, 2.86 ERA) takes on Indians stopper Shane Bieber (10-3, 3.44 ERA) in the opener of a three-game series at Progressive Field. AT&T Sportsnet Southwest hits the air at 5:30pm before the first pitch is tossed at 6:10pm.
