Cardinals starter Luke Weaver retired Todd Frazier, Jay Bruce and Adrian Gonzalez in order, needing just 10 pitches.

Jay Bruce Breaks Out, Hits Game-Winning Home Run In Tenth

About five hours before Tuesday's scheduled first pitch at Busch Stadium, a gaggle of Mets hitters crowded around the cage for early batting practice.
