Que up the Ernie Banks…”Let’s Play Two!” Teams like the Philadelphia Phillies, St. Louis Cardinals and Milwaukee Brewers may have a lot of double-headers in their future. The Phillies and Marlins both missed a full week of action, and the Cardinals are not far behind. Milwaukee’s Lorenzo Cain and the Mets’ Yoenis Cespedes have both opted to forgo the rest of the season. And now there’s a hurricane bearing down on the East Coast. Lots to keep an eye on!
