The New York Mets defeated the St. Louis Cardinals 9-3, improving their record to 22-11, maintaining a lead over the Philadelphia Phillies in the National League East. The victory highlighted a strong season driven by impressive pitching and timely hitting.

Jesse Winker contributed significantly, going 2-for-3 with a run scored. However, he was pulled from the game early due to right side discomfort, raising concerns about his health. Winker has been a solid performer against right-handed pitching, boasting an .837 OPS over his career. The Mets are hopeful that this injury won't sideline him for an extended period.
