Jupiter, FL- Chris Andujar (3-1) threw a gem to lead the Stone Crabs over Palm Beach 2-0 in the series finale. Andujar allowed one hit and struck out two in eight 1/3 innings.

The right-hander carried a no-hitter into the sixth inning that was later broken up on a leadoff single by catcher Tony Cruz. Andujar retired the first batter he faced in the ninth, but was pulled after Rich Racobaldo reached on an error by third baseman Henry Wrigley. Zachary Quate relieved Andujar and retired the next two batters in succession to nail down the Charlotte victory.

Arquimedes Nieto (2-2) allowed two runs on three hits and struck out four. The only blemish on Nieto's line was the two-run homer he surrendered to Tim Beckham in the third inning. Henry Wrigley padded Charlotte's lead with a two-run blast in the ninth off of Joel Pichardo.

Palm Beach will begin a 10-game road trip tomorrow that will take them to Brevard County, Tampa, and Charlotte. The Cardinals will return to Roger Dean Stadium on May 26th for a five-game home stand.
