Gast has won each of his two Major League starts, though he has stumbled in the sixth inning both times. The Cards won't hesitate to pull him in the middle innings if they see him continue to tire.

Miller left with the lead last time out, but suffered the loss when the bullpen allowed a pair of inherited Padres runners to score. For the second straight start, pitch inefficiency kept him from being able to finish six innings.

Wainwright pitched 7 1/3 innings Tuesday, his seventh start of at least seven innings this year. He showcased the changeup he's been working on and he got his delivery back in sync after some troubles in his previous outing.
