DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (April 17, 2026) – The St. Lucie Mets rallied in the eighth inning to defeat the Daytona Tortugas 6-4 on Friday night at Jackie Robinson Ballpark. The series is now tied 2-2 heading into the weekend.
The Mets were down 4-2 in the seventh and began their comeback when Chase Meggers hit a leadoff double and Sam Biller doubled two batters later to make it a 4-3 game.
In the eighth inning, the Mets loaded the bases against Andrew Shaffner with one out. Meggers chopped a two-run single through the left side of the infield to plate two runs and give the Mets a 5-4 lead.
The Mets added an insurance run in the ninth when Sam Robertson walked, advanced to second on a ground out, stole third base and scored on ground out by Julio Zayas to make it 6-4.
Mets reliever Elwis Mijares, who struck out the side in the eighth inning, allowed the first two batters to reach in the ninth. However, Mijares recovered to strike out Jacob Friend and got Bernard Moon to hit into a game-ending 6-4-3 double play.
