Mets from cardinals in Douleheader (highlights) swept

The New York Mets only briefly came on Sunday and had both games of a double head to the St. Louis Cardinals, 6-5 in game 1 and 5: 4 in game 2, despite several late options for rally.

At the start, Rookie Blade Tidwell made his debut in the Major League and pushed into trouble early. He showed promise at high speed at a fast ball, but had to struggle with the command and gave up six deserved runs over 3.2 innings. Pete Alonso continued his hot route on the plate, collected two doubles and scored a run. Injuries also complicated the matter when Jesse Winker, with the right side of discomfort, forced the exit and a little defensive mixing.

The meters claw back late, with Francisco Lindor's two runs the deficit in the eighth to a cut. But a controversial hit three call on Alonso and a GEimmo-flyout ended the rally. In ninth place, New York brought the binding run to third place, but Luisangel Acuña emerged to end the game.

The night track followed a similar script. Tylor Megill struggled through five innings, gave up four runs, and the Mets could not benefit from early value opportunities and only ended 3: 11 with runners in the goal position. Starling Marte ensured a spark with a single with two runs and a stolen base, while Francisco Alvarez added an RBI knock. Alonso also broke into an RBI single.

Brandon Dimo ​​delivered almost a big hit with the bases invited, but an outstanding catch that was robbed in the right side. In the meantime, the Cardinal Reliever Michael McGreevy dominated and closed the Mets over 5.2 goalless Innerings to seal the sweep.
