Pujols and Juan Gonzalez Go Deep Against Mets Juan Gonzalez came to the Cardinals highly recommended by Albert Pujols.  In Juan Gone’s first at bat off of Johan Santana, he made Albert look like a genius.  He took Santana deep to left center with two on and two out in his first at bat of the spring.  Albert Pujols would add a solo shot in the 6th inning as well and the Cardinals beat the Mets 5-3, for their second time in as many days.

Adam Wainwright started for the Cardinals and gave up five singles and two runs over three innings of work.
