The Cardinals were 2-4 on their latest road trip and that required a 20-inning game. They came home and unleashed their frustrations on the Mets with a 13-3 win at Busch Stadium. St. Louis jumped all over Mets starter Al Leiter, taking a 4-0 lead in the first. Albert Pujols, Edgar Renteria and Scott Rolen drove in runs with doubles in the inning. Rolen and Renteria finished with four RBI’s apiece. Pitcher Matt Morris went six strong innings to get his second win of the season allowing two runs off five hits, two walks and five strikeouts. The Cardinals remained two games behind the first-place Cubs who beat Giants 4-2.
