Starting Pitcher Mike Antonini made a strong for the B-Mets 5th straight Spring Training victory but Mother Nature had other plans. The B-Mets were leading 3-1 with two outs in the top of the third inning in Port St. Lucie, Florida when the remainder of the game was called due to rain. No makeup date has been announced.

Antonini pitched the duration of the rain-shortened game going 2 2/3 innings allowing only one hit and one unearned run. He struck out two and walked none.

The B-Mets got on the board in the first inning when Shortstop Emmanuel Garcia lead off with a walk. He then preceded to steal second base and would move to third on a wild pitch. He would be brought home by a single from B-Mets catcher Josh Thole.

Left Fielder Frank Diaz added to the B-Mets offense in the 2nd inning with a sacrifice fly. Designated Hitter Josh Petersen added an RBI with a double later in the inning.

The B-Mets travel to Jupiter, Florida tomorrow to take on the Springfield Cardinals. Their Spring Training Schedule wraps up on Thursday against the Jacksonville Suns.

Season Tickets and mini-packs are available for the 2009 Season. Reserve a seat for yourself for all 71 B-Mets home games. Call 723-METS for more information.
