ST. LOUIS (AP) --- Ramn Uras launched his first home run with St. Louis and
Andre Pallante combined with four relievers on a three-hitter as the Cardinals
defeated the New York Mets 3-0 on Tuesday night.
Ivn Herrera had a two-run double in the third inning, and Uras drove Richard
Lovelady's second pitch over the left-center wall in the seventh.
Pallante (1-0) pitched five-plus innings, allowing three hits and three walks
while striking out three.
He was lifted for Gordon Graceffo in the sixth after giving up a double to Juan
Soto and a walk to Bo Bichette to start the inning. Graceffo, recalled from
Triple-A Memphis before the game, got Luis Robert Jr. to fly to center and
Jared Young to line into a 6-3 double play.
Ryne Stanek and JoJo Romero each worked an inning before Riley O'Brien pitched
a perfect ninth for his first save this season.
JJ Wetherholt had two hits and scored a run. The rookie has reached safely in
each of his first five major league games.
Kodai Senga allowed two runs and four hits over six innings in an encouraging
outing for New York. Senga (0-1) struck out nine, including the side in the
second and sixth. He walked three.
Soto had a pair of hits and has reached safely in all 40 career games against
St. Louis. It is the longest streak to begin a career versus the Cardinals.
Up next
Mets RHP Freddy Peralta (1-0) faces LHP Matthew Liberatore (0-0) in the rubber
game of the series Wednesday.
