A pitching
dual to begin with resulted on a 1 to 0 Cardinal lead until the 5th inning
when the Mets put together 7 runs on 4 hits including a 2 RBI double my
Michael Collodel. The Mets scored 5 more times in the 6th inning
on 4 hits. Connor Harrington displayed his "hose" of an arm from
right field on a close play at the plate and the Cardinals came roaring
back in the bottom of the 6th inning with 6 runs. Ricky Lloyd was
called upon to relieve Kyke Debacker who had pitched 1 run baseball all
game, after getting the first two outs of the 6th with two striekouts.
Lloyd held on and closed the game with a win for the Mets.
