Machamer Leads Mets to 9-3 Win Over Cardinals
The New York Mets powered past the St. Louis Cardinals, 9-3, at Busch Stadium. Jack Machamer provided some of the pop. Batman was 4-5 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 4. The Mets move to 44-47 with the win, while the Cardinals drop to 43-49.

New York used the timely hitting of Tom Ferrell to seize the win. The designated hitter stroked a 2-run single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Mets on top, 6-3. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Every time you put a 'W' on the board is always good," said Machamer.
