Pittsburgh Pirates will turn to Ace Paul Scan to try to lose their longest for the last season when he visited St. Louis Cardinals on Tuesday night.
Schins (3-3, 2.74 ERA), one right-handed, will oppose the left-arm Matthew Libertor (2-3, 3.44) in the second competition of the three-game series.

A year ago, the scans have already absorbed three defeats after losing three during their National League Ruki of the Year campaign.
“The execution was not there. Like spraying the ball,” Sken said after its most recent beginning. “Got away with it for a while and obviously it was shown a little in the fifth, but it is what it is.”
Schins will also face a cardinal team, which they have so far defeated four career (0-3, 2.70 ERA). He lost to Cardinals in Pittsburgh on 8 April when he allowed season-high five runs in six innings in a 5–3 defeat.
The most recent beginning of Libertor started against Cincinnati Reds on Thursday, although it was reduced by weather. He played only three innings, scored two runs and two runs on two hits, while two were thrown out. Libertor did not return to the mound after long rains and tagged the 9–1 game with disadvantages.
Earlier, each of the first five starts of each season of Libertor remained in six or more innings. He started three consecutive quality from 13–25 April, leading to three acquired runs more than 18 2/3 innings, while exiting 17 and only two batsmen walking.
Libertor recently talked about how having a stable role in the rotation of cardinals helped them prepare for their outing.
Libertor said, “It has been given a much more stable runway to plan me my days and make sure that I am maximizing my time on the field every day, rather I know that there may be a schedule that day.”
The nine career appearances (five beginnings) against Libertor Pittsburgh have 1-3 with 6.51 ERA. He gave five runs in 6 1/3 innings of 8-4 defeat to Pirates on 7 April.
Pittsburgh’s Vanil Cruise was caught stealing by Pedro pages in the third innings of Monday’s game, which ends the run of 35 successful theft bases back in the previous season.
