St. Lucie 3, Clearwater 4

For the second straight game, the Mets fell behind, then attempted a rally. Only this time, they succeeded in tying it with 2 in the 8th, only to see Stephen Clyne give up a run in the bottom of the inning.

Remember my protest at Edgar Alfonzo? Apply it to Stephen Clyne. What’s he doing in St. Lucie with a 1.90? Promote him to Binghamton, and get Rhiner Cruz and Jacob Goldberg to St. Lucie from Savannah.
