Stone Crabs Deny Mets, 3-2
Charlotte and St. Lucie played a hard-fought contest.

The Charlotte Stone Crabs besoiled an otherwise fine performance by St. Lucie left fielder Lou Graham by beating the Mets, 3-2, at Tradition Field. Graham belted 2 home runs. The win went to Dan Collins in relief. His record improves to 6-0. Mitch Smith took the loss.

Charlotte used the timely hitting of Jeremiah Bartlett to seize the win. The first baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Stone Crabs on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

Bartlett said his team "played with focus and determination."

The win lifted the Charlotte record to 42-36.
