Bartolo Colon struggles again as Mets get shutout 9-0

Bartolo Colon struggled for the second straight game as the Mets dropped the third game of the four-game series, by a score of 9-0.

Game Recap:

The St. Louis Cardinals jumped out to a quick 1-0 lead in the first inning thanks to a ground-rule double off the bat of Jhonny Peralta.

It was 1-0 entering the third when Colon came up to bat. He hit a slow dribbler down the third base line that Yadier Molina bobbled, allowing the soon-to-be 42-year-old to reach base.
