Miles Mikolas and three relievers led St. Louis past New York 4-2 on Friday. The Mets generated plenty of traffic against Mikolas, who allowed seven hits in 5 2/3 innings. Martinez's RBI double chased Mikolas, but JoJo Romero struck out Jeff McNeil, representing the potential tying run, to begin an impressive stretch by Cardinals relievers.
