Starting pitcher Clay Buchholz had a solid game. He was a big reason the St. Louis Cardinals throttled the New York Mets, 6-2. Buchholz got the win, improving to 12-9. He gave up 5 hits and walked 0 over 8.1 innings. He allowed 2 runs. The win boosted St. Louis to 89-68.

St. Louis won the game in part because of Anthony Rendon. The third baseman ripped a 2-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Cardinals ahead, 3-1. For the game, Rendon had 1 double and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.

"You work hard, day in and day out, hoping to give the fans something to cheer about. Today was a good day," Rendon told the St. Louis Observer.
