It was a classic pitcher’s duel as the FSL’s best pitcher, Darin Gorski and Matt Tomshaw exchange zeros through the first five innings before turning the game over to the bullpens. The Miracle drew first blood scoring on Mike Powers in the sixth inning. Powers yielded a lead-off single that came back to haunt him as two base hits later, the Miracle led 1-0. The score remained 1-0 into the bottom of the eighth inning when the Mets finally got on the board. Stefan Welch singled and advanced to third on a Jefry Marte double, Cesar Puello followed with a two-run double to left field giving the Mets a 2-1 lead, a lead they would not relinquish. Powers retired the Miracle 1-2-3 in the top of the ninth to record the win.
Mike Powers got the win tossing four innings allowing one run on four hits while striking out five. He improves to 5-5 on the season. Darin Gorski received the no-decision throwing five shutout innings allowing only two hits with four strikeouts. The Mets scattered 11 hits on the night. Stefan Welch had a three hit game and Wilmer Flores, Jefry Marte and Cesar Puello had two hits each in the win. Puello had the big hit driving in both Mets runs.
