Mets Crushed by Cardinals Again

The Mets took a brutal 7-0 loss to the Cardinals, as Freddy Peralta struggled through six innings, surrendering six runs, while the offense went cold with just five hits. The Cardinals exploded for four runs in the third and added two more in the fifth, thanks to doubles, a hit batter, and a bloop single followed by a two-run homer. Peralta, expected to be a frontline ace, has been inconsistent and may be on the trade block if the Mets don’t start winning consistently by July. Meanwhile, Cardinals starter Dustin May delivered a strong six-inning shutout, shutting down the Mets’ lineup despite his recent struggles. The Mets need a bounce-back performance tomorrow with Christian Scott on the mound and must find a way to string wins together to return to .500.
