Cardinals clout three homers in one inning; Mets' No 9 batter hits for cycle in 7-7 tie

JUPITER, Fla.--Once New York Mets reliever Tyler Bashlor, unscored on in three spring outings, entered Thursday’s exhibition game, the wraps came off the Cardinals’ offense, which had scored only one run against New York in 12 innings over two days.

Paul DeJong clouted his fourth homer of the spring. Lane Thomas smacked his second, a three-run shot, and Matt Carpenter erased what was left of a 5-0 Mets lead with his first homer of the spring, a two-run drive. Thomas also had a double and two walks later in the game.

But the hitting star of a 7-7 tie was No.
