The St. Louis Cardinals beat the New York Mets, 12-2, at Shea Stadium. St. Louis first baseman Mark Teixeira had an outstanding performance. He went 3-5 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 3 times and drove in 3. St. Louis has run its win streak to 4 consecutive.

St. Louis got a big at-bat from Vicksburg, Mississippi native Dmitri Young, who in the top of the fourth hit a grand slam home run. It was his 18th home run of the season and put the Cardinals ahead, 12-0.

"We came out aggressive," said Cardinals manager Tony LaRussa. "We came out swinging the bats."
