Locked On Mets - Daily Podcast On The New York Mets

The New York Mets were unable to complete the series sweep against the St. Louis Cardinals, losing 10-5 in the finale.

After Pete Alonso was hit in the head Tuesday night, the Mets threw a pitch up-and-in on Nolan Arenado and the Cardinals superstar did not like it. The benches cleared and Arenado was tossed from the game, as the Mets-Cardinals rivalry of the past was sparked again.

Host Ryan Finkelstein breaks down the loss and everything that took place during the benches clearing incident.

Also your farm report comes a day early, as Ryan checks in on the Mets minor league system ahead of his trip out to New York to watch their top prospects in person.

For the first time in franchise history, the New York Mets have won each of the first six series that they have played, as they beat the Cardinals again on Tuesday night.

Also an update on the injury status of Jacob deGrom and Taijuan Walker, who are both on their way back to the Mets rotation.
