The Mets suffered a 2-1 loss to the Cardinals, largely due to their inability to capitalize with runners in scoring position, going 0-for-11 in the game and 1-for-29 in the series. Juan Soto’s home run provided their only run, while Freddy Peralta delivered a strong performance with seven strikeouts over 5 ⅓ innings. The Mets wasted a bases-loaded chance in the 11th, and manager Carlos Mendoza emphasized the need for hitters to adjust and produce runs. Francisco Lindor expressed belief in the team’s potential despite the struggles.
