Blue Jays Earn Late 2-1 Win
Florida Auto Exchange Stadium was the site of a true pitchers' duel.

Dunedin pitcher Ignacio Benítez did his part in helping his team defeat the St. Lucie Mets, 2-1. The opposition could never get too much going against the right-hander. Benítez, who is tied for 6th in the FSL in complete games with 1, went the distance for Dunedin. He gave up 1 run on 5 hits.

Dunedin took a 2-1 lead on Kevin Coleman's 2nd home run of the season. The solo home run, which Coleman hit in the bottom of the seventh, left St. Lucie pitcher Joey Burns visibly frustrated.

Coleman called the win "a pick-me-upper."

Dunedin goes to 69-55, St. Lucie to 67-57.
