New York Upended, 9-4, by St. Louis
Due in large part to catcher Matthew Purnell, the St. Louis Cardinals sunk the New York Mets, 9-4. Purnell went 2 for 4 with 2 doubles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. New York falls to 10-7.

St. Louis used the clutch hitting of Brady Mercado to capture the win. The center fielder drilled a 2-run double in the top of the sixth inning to give the Cardinals the lead, 5-3. For the game, Mercado had 1 single and 1 double in 5 at-bats.

"I was hoping to make good contact," said Mercado. "I wasn't trying to knock the snot out of it."
