Tom Seaver Fan Club

April 26, 1986 at Busch Stadium

Mets 4, Cardinals 3  (10-3)

The Mets made it eight in a row as they edged the Cardinals 4-3.  The Mets scored all four of their runs and had five of their eight hits in the first inning.

Lenny Dykstra led off the game with a homerun and Danny Heep went two for four with two RBIs.  Sid Fernandez was very solid in eight innings of work.  He gave up only two hits and two runs with ten strikeouts.  Jesse Orosco got the final two Cardinals out to earn his third save of the season.
