Harrison (-, 5.0 ERA) vs. Carpenter (3-0, 3.30 ERA) :05 PM ET at Busch Stadium
Tonight the Cardinals host the Rangers in the first World Series Game since 00. In Game 6, after mounting two incredible comebacks, a David Freese walk-off home run in the th-inning gave the Cardinals a 0-9 win and new life.
The Rangers have to get over the fact that in Game 6 they blew two-out, two-run leads twice, but they havent lost back-to-back games since August 3-5 against the Red Sox, theyre 3-0 in their last 3 games after a loss.
Matt Harrison will go on normal rest for the Rangers while Chris Carpenter will go on three days rest for the Cardinals.

presented very well to the away match against Manchester City and managed to jam the rhythm of the game, wanting to knock the English team on counterattacks. In the 69th minute they managed to open the score with Cavani, while there were conditions also for a second goal. But the equalizer came in the 74th minute by Kolarov and the 1-1 remained until the end.

The Green Bay Packers and the Carolina Panthers will both be trying to pick up a win on Sunday when they battle at Bank of America Stadium.

The true question is if Newton and the hometown Panthers will be able to keep up.
