METS BEAT CARDS 4-2! Despite a nail-biting bottom of the ninth, the Mets held a lead over the Cards to carry the playoffs into Game 7.

Congrats to Chevy Player of the Game John Maine, formerly of the Bethesda Big Train, who kept the Cards scoreless for 5-1/3 innings, giving up only 2 hits.

Here's Mike's Mets.
