Griffin Canning delivers a stellar performance for the New York Mets, throwing six strong innings with eight strikeouts against the formidable St. Louis Cardinals lineup.

The Mets' bullpen, in desperate need of rest, benefits greatly from Canning's 102-pitch outing. A four-run second inning, highlighted by Mark Vientos' first home run of the season and Francisco Lindor's two-run single, proves sufficient for the victory.

Ryan Finkelstein, host of Locked On Mets, breaks down Canning's impressive start and its significance for the team's pitching staff.

He also discusses encouraging signs from struggling hitters like Brett Baty and Tyrone Taylor. With injury updates on Jeff McNeil and Francisco Alvarez, plus a preview of the upcoming matchup against Miles Mikolas, this episode provides crucial insights for Mets fans.
