How else can you explain this? Because it’s kind of a miracle when they win, and by some miracle they are still in the wild-card hunt.
The Mets beat the Cardinals, 10-6, Thursday night at Busch Stadium to win two of three against St. Louis and move within 3 ¹/\u2082 games of the Redbirds and the NL’s second wild card.
