Last Night's Action: Put It In The Books

Mets 6 St. Louis 4: Off the field, the Mets lost Carlos Beltran to the DL. On the field, they looked just fine, getting a huge start from Tim Redding and getting the big hits when they needed them. Redding pitched seven innings that set the team up for the win, but Brian Stokes deserves credit for coming into the eighth inning and getting the dangerous Albert Pujols to ground into a double play. Omir Santos got four hits and Alex Cora added two RBI’s. F-Rod pitched a perfect ninth for his 19th save.
