5-4 Win for St. Louis Over New York
The St. Louis Cardinals picked up a win at Citi Field, knocking off the New York Mets, 5-4. On the mound for St. Louis was left-hander Andy Lawson. He played a key role in the triumph. The winner was Lawson. He threw 7.0 innings of 5-hit ball. The loser was Juan Mata. Jeff Haworth collected his 10th save.

St. Louis relied on the bat of Danny Ortega to get the win. The first baseman produced a 3-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to put the Cardinals ahead, 4-2. For the game, Ortega had 1 double and 1 home run in 4 at-bats.

"Some wins are easy and some are difficult, but either way we come to the ballpark ready to work hard every day," Ortega told the St. Louis Daily News.

The defeat makes New York 12-13.
