Justin Verlander does his best Johnny Vander Meer imitation but comes up short in his first start since pitching the second no-hitter of his career on May 8th. The Tigers ace is still masterful, though, keeping the Royalshitless until Melky Cabrera’s two-out triple in the 6th. He ends up allowing two hits in 8 innings in a 3 – 1 win. His losing opponent in last week’s no-hitter, Toronto’s Ricky Romero, also has a low-hit game, giving up the first of his four hits with two outs in the 6th. He comes up one out short of a complete game shutout, leaving Frank Francisco to get the final out of a 2 – 0 victory over the Twins.

One day after playing a marathon 20-inning contest, the Cardinals’ bullpen gets some rest as Adam Wainwright pitches a complete game for a 5 – 3 win over the Mets. Colby Rasmus and Ryan Ludwick’s homers account for all of St. Louis’s runs; Wainwright helps his own cause by doubling ahead of Ludwick’s blast in the 8th. For their part, the Mets designate 1B Mike Jacobs for assignment before the game in order to call up P Tobi Stonerfrom AAA Buffalo. Jacobs has become redundant because of the rapid development of prospect Ike Davis, who will be called up to the majors tomorrow. Stoner is the losing pitcher in his only game of the season, in spite of giving up only one run in 2 1/3 innings of work with the Mets’ bullpen also burnt out from yesterday’s game.
