A+ Florida State League: St. Lucie 7/13/0, Fort Myers 9/13/2

The Mets bullpen IMPLODED today, turning a 7-2 lead into a 9-7 loss. Jimmy Johnson, and especially Jose Bierd, combined to wreck a terrific outing from Robert Carson, who easily had his best start of 2010, going 6 innings, while allowing 2 runs on 5 hits. Bierd took the loss, giving up 5 runs on 5 hits and a walk.

The Mets offense definitely did their job, with 7 runs on 13 hits and a walk, despite going 2 for 15 (.133) with RISP and leaving 9 on base. Sean Ratliff (0 for 5, 2 Ks, .274), Brahiam Maldonado and Richard Lucas took 0-fers. Emmanuel Garcia, Stefan Welch and Eric "Can't Get Me Out Right Now" Campbell had mulit hit games.

A South Atlantic League: Savannah 4/9/1, Delmarva 5/10/4, 11 innings

Wilmer Flores broke out of a mini 3 for 22 skid with a 2 XBH day, a double and a homer, but it wasn't enough as the Gnats fell in 11 innings. Jeff Flagg had the only other multi hit game, while Dock Doyle (0 for 3, RBI, BB, K, .200) and Cesar Puello took 0-fers. Collin McHugh started and wasn't effective, giving up 4 runs on 7 hits and 3 walks in 4.2 innings, but his offense bailed him out. Michael Powers took the loss after giving up an unearned run (Jefry Marte's 8th error already!)
