Final Score: Cardinals 7, Mets 0—Dud
Gregory Fisher-USA TODAY Sports The Mets hardly got anything going offensively tonight against the Cardinals, getting shut out for the 12th time this year, and the 8th time at home, in the first game of a huge 3-game set.
The Mets had no answer at all for Adam Wainwright, and true to form this season, missed a bunch of chances with runners in scoring position. The Mets went 0-for-7 with RISP and left 9 runners on base. They had the bases loaded in the first, runners on first and second in the 5th, and runners on first and third with nobody out in the 8th and came away with 0 runs in all of those chances.
