HOUSTON -- While two games wont be enough for either the St. Louis Cardinals or Houston Astros to establish the momentum that has eluded both over the past month, their brief interleague series at Minute Maid Park could at least serve as a potential ignition.The Cardinals (62-56) claimed the final two games of their four-game set with the Cubs in Chicago over the weekend, closing that series where they began it relative to their position in the National League Central -- 12 games back of the Cubs. St. Louis last won three consecutive games July 27-29 (the finale against the New York Mets and the first two games of its series in Miami) and is 16-14 since the All-Star Game break.Left-hander Jaime Garcia (9-8, 3.93 ERA) will get the start for St. Louis on Tuesday night. He lost to the Astros on June 14 at Busch Stadium, allowing four runs (three earned) on eight hits with two strikeouts over 6 1/3 innings in a 5-2 setback. The Cardinals lost 4-1 the following day as Houston completed the sweep.Garcia is 2-6 with a 6.15 ERA in his career against the Astros. His 10 starts against Houston are his most against an opponent outside the NL Central.St. Louis will be without left-handed reliever Kevin Siegrist, who departed in the eighth inning on Sunday with arm soreness. Siegrist has been plagued with a dead arm since returning from the disabled list last month and was removed after shaking his arm while on the mound Sunday in Chicago.Cardinals manager Mike Matheny is hopeful that Siegrist can rebound over the next week, with St. Louis facing three scheduled off-days during that stretch.Siegrist led the majors with 81 appearances last season, finishing 7-1 with a 2.17 ERA. He is 5-2 with a 2.92 ERA in 50 appearances this season.It wasnt worth (continuing) at that point, Siegrist said to MLB.com. I was shaking my arm out a little bit, really trying to get it going. Its been hard coming back from being on the DL and trying to get my arm back in shape. I kind of went through a little dead arm-type feeling, and its been hit or miss.The Astros (61-57) are dealing with bullpen issues as well. Closer Ken Giles spent the weekend on the paternity list while right-hander Luke Gregerson returned from the 15-day disabled list (left oblique) and allowed a solo home run in the seventh inning of a 9-2 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays. Houston also relied on rookie right-handers James Hoyt and Jandel Gustave in the setback.Well continue to grind through it, Astros manager A.J. Hinch told MLB.com. Well have our full bullpen back by Tuesday. Thatll be a nice return.Astros left-hander Dallas Keuchel (7-11, 4.56 ERA) will make his second career start against the Cardinals. He is 0-1 with a 9.45 ERA in two prior appearances (one start).The Astros are 13-16 since the All-Star break with three three-game losing skids during that stretch. They dropped the final two games of their series in Toronto and are in the midst of 14 road games during a 16-game stretch. Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping . JOHNS, N. Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys .

China Jerseys Wholesale . PETERSBURG, Fla. Next Generation Esports has partnered up with Blizzard to bring about the genesis of a new North American tournament, the Overwatch Winter Premiere. From December 10 through the end of January, teams from across the continent will be vying for the $100,000 prize pool. The tournament format is a bit unusual, so it will be interesting to see how this event plays out for audiences and competitors alike.The first stage of the competition centers on an open qualifier that allows two methods of entering the round of eight. Each day will consist of a bracket round, in which the winner immediately secures a spot while everyone else gains points for their placings (second place, third place and so forth). At the end of the open round, four teams will have made it through by placing first on each respective day of the open qualifiers, and four more teams will advance by having the highest accumulated points from this round as well.On to the first qualifier! The final matches of the days games showed heated competition between Kungarna, Complexity, Kingdom eSports, and FaZe Clan who had knocked out the rest of the competition. Kungarnas Andrej babybay Francisty and Conner ConnorJ Johnson displayed the sharpness of their skillset as they played Soldier 76 and Roadhog respectively to bulldoze right through Complexity for a 2-0 victory in the semifinals. Kungarna as a team is incredibly decisive as it blitzes through the map for better or worse, as all six players are always on the same page.Kungarnas opponent for the automatic round of eight seed would be decided bby a fated brawl between Kingdom eSports and FaZe Clan, both teams featuring well known star players.dddddddddddd. Kingdom eSports had picked up ex-NRG players Mark Pookz Rendon and Daniel Gods Graeser who had left the team after the Overwatch World Cup after BlizzCon. Meanwhile, FaZe Clan had Russian player George ShaDowBurn Gushcha who had demonstrated himself to all denizens of the earth what a terrifying Genji player he truly was. Adding to his arsenal, ShaDowBurn picked up D.Va who thus far is a power pick in the current meta.In what was a close match, FaZe Clan, at a huge disadvantage, almost had a miracle comeback over Kingdom eSports on Watchpoint: Gibraltar, but their hopes were dashed to pieces; Kingdom eSports displayed frightening teamwork as they advanced to fight Kungarna for the guaranteed seed into the round of eight.As both teams had standout players in their series so far, the match between Kungarna and Kingdom couldnt be described as anything less than an experienced team putting a newer team through a clinic. While Kungarna had illustrated good teamwork against Complexity, it was Kingdom who showed a more cohesive squad of six teammates in the finals, and pulverized the valiant efforts of Kungarna for a 3-0 sweep, and a spot in the round of eight. However Kungarna need not despair as there are three more open qualifiers left to prove their worth and get their revenge on Kingdom as the tournament goes on.
