A one-out walk, a bloop single, a replay challenge on a fluke play at third that didn't go the Cardinals' way and a fielding error turned into four unearned runs that put the Cardinals down 7-0 to the Mets after five innings. The Cardinals finally got on the scoreboard in the sixth, cutting the lead to 7-2.
The Cardinals could have ended the inning twice but couldn't.
