St. Lucie 1, Palm Beach 9 - Game 2

The Mets faced the best pitching prospect you've never heard of in Nick Additon, and got shut down by him for the second consecutive outing. Additon, who gave up 3 hits in 7 innings on the 21st, gave up 3 hits in 6 innings tonight, and over 18 FSL innings, has given up 2 runs (1 earned), for a 0.50 era. Nick Waechter opposed him tonight and was not good at all, giving up 7 hits and 6 runs (4 earned) in 3 innings for his first FSL loss. Nick Abel gave up 3 runs (2 earned) in 2 innings just for good measure.

The Mets managed just 4 hits, by 4 different players, while 5 took 0-fers. Marlon Anderson (0 for 3, BB, K), Greg Veloz (0 for 3, run, .259), Ezequiel Carrera (0 for 3, .263), Brahiam Maldonado (0 for 3, 2 Ks, .233) and Jason Jacobs (0 for 3, K, .229).

St. Lucie 2, Palm Beach 1 - Game 2

Brahiam Maldonado's 2 run homer in the 5th was enough for the Mets to earn a split with the Cardinals today.

Ruben Tejada and Maldonado had the lone hits, everyone else took 0-fers.
