The Cardinals lost to the Mets, 10-6, on Thursday in St. Louis, and in doing so lost the series 2-1. The loss dropped the Cardinals to 29-35 at home, as they remain the only team above .500 with a losing record at home.

Luke Weaver allowed three runs (all earned) in 5.0 innings against the Phillies on Saturday, picking up his first career loss. The rookie will be making his third career start, still in search of his first win. Both of his prior starts have come on the road.

Stephen Piscotty has multi-hit games in four of his last seven games, hitting .379 in that span with three home runs and seven RBI. However, Piscotty has struggled against AL West teams this season, hitting just .220 against them in 13 games.
