The Palm Beach Cardinals were unable to dig out of an early hole on Friday night at Roger Dean Chevrolet Stadium en route to an 8-3 loss to the St. Lucie Mets.

The Beach Birds' foe from St. Lucie County clinches the six-game series with Friday's victory. The Mets tacked on the game's first four runs in the second and third innings and led by as much as 6-1 midway through the fourth inning.

Palm Beach's first run came in the bottom of the third on a Tyler Reichenborn bases-loaded walk. They added another in the fourth when Hansel Otamendi sent a sacrifice fly to right field. The Cardinals' last run of the evening came in the fifth, off the bat of Osvaldo Tovalin.

The Mets added a run each in the seventh and eighth innings.

Carlos Guarate started for Palm Beach and took the loss with a four-inning appearance. The righty logged five strikeouts. Relievers Jose Moreno, Gustavo Rodriguez and Gianluca Dalatri combined for no earned runs over five innings and collectively struck out 10 batters.
