Pujols, Cardinals roll into Colorado

May 5, 2008 - 2:00 PM St Louis (20-12) at Colorado (12-19) 8:35 pm EDT

DENVER (Ticker) - Albert Pujols and the St. Louis Cardinals will look to keep rolling when they kickoff a four-game series with the Colorado Rockies on Monday.

The Cardinals have won four of their previous five contests after Pujols' two-run double Sunday lifted his club to a 5-3 victory over the Chicago Cubs. Pujols leads St. Louis with a .358 batting average, six home runs and 23 RBI this season.

Starting a seven-game road trip, the Cardinals will send righthander Joel Pineiro (2-2, 3.75 ERA) to the mound.

Pineiro is seeking his third straight win after pitching seven one-hit frames in a 7-2 triumph over the Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday. He did not allow a run, while walking four and striking out three.

The Rockies will counter with righthander Ubaldo Jimenez, who is hoping to collect his first win since April 8. He allowed two runs and three hits with two walks and four strikeouts in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the San Francisco Giants.

Colorado avoided a fourth straight loss with Sunday's 7-2 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers.
