A Colby Rasmus error led to five unearned runs as the Mets scored seven run in the 7th inning as relief pitcher Trever Miller was knocked around in that one bad inning as the Cardinals lose 9-5.

Adam Wainwright was so-so in his start.  He struck out eight in 5 1/3 innings, but he also walked four and allowed two runs. Wainwright has 19 K’s in his past 15 1/3 innings.

Khalil Greene stayed hot with two hits and an RBI. His average is .404.  Rick Ankiel doubled and scored a run. Skip Schumaker drew two walks and scored a run, which is just want you want from your lead-off hitter.

Cards take on the Red Sox Friday at 12:05.
