Worth noting

• The Cardinals have set their pitching plans for Tuesday's doubleheader in Pittsburgh, Matheny announced on Saturday. Tyler Lyons will be called up from Triple-A to start the first game of the twin bill. Lance Lynn will start the nightcap. Lynn will be opposed by Pirates righty A.J. Burnett. The Pirates have not yet announced who will start Game 1.

• Right-hander Zach Petrick has an ERA over 1.00 for the first time since May, though he did lead Double-A Springfield to a win on Friday with another quality start. Petrick allowed two runs on six hits in six innings. He struck out nine and did not walk a batter. In his 83 2/3 innings this season, Petrick has posted a 1.08 ERA.

• Kolten Wong helped lead Triple-A Memphis to a 7-4 victory on Friday with a three-run homer, his eighth blast this season. Wong, ranked by MLB.com as the organization's fourth-best prospect, has hit .296 in seven games since the All-Star break.

• With the Cardinals expected to arrive in Pittsburgh in the early hours of Monday morning, Jake Westbrook, who is scheduled to start the series opener, will fly there in advance of the rest of the team. Westbrook is scheduled to arrive in Pittsburgh on Sunday evening.
