All tied up, Foster in from the 'pen



The St. Lucie Mets have drawn even with the Bradenton Marauders, and needed just one hit to do so.

The Mets tied the score at 2-2 in the seventh, a rally that began when Cesar Puello was hit by pitched. He went to third on a soft single by Cory Vaughn and wound up scoring when Francisco bounced into a 4-6-3 double play.

But Jose Coronado singled, chasing Marauder starter Brandon Cumptom. The right went 6 2/3 innings, allowing two runs on seven hits, and striking out seven and walking one.

Cumpton gave way to Zachary Foster, who needed just one pitch to retire Pedro Zapata on a fielder's choice.

It's 2-2 heading into the bottom of the seventh.
