Mets Hand Cardinals 2-1 Loss
The New York Mets dumped the St. Louis Cardinals, 2-1, in large part due to center fielder Jake McCarthy. On the day, McCarthy went 2 for 2 with a double and 2 walks for the Mets. Alexis Diaz earned the save, his 26th in 28 tries. The Mets bumped their record to 65-57 with this win.

One important at-bat came with a runner on 2nd in the top of the fifth inning. Facing St. Louis hurler Alex Cobb, Ian Happ hit a run-scoring single. The Mets went on to win.

McCarthy said he "would like to have scored more runs for Diaz. But we'll gladly take this win."
