Miracle fall in 11 innings
JUPITER – Two straight extra-inning games, two identical scores, two different results for the Fort Myers Miracle. After winning Monday’s 10-inning affair 4-3, they lost Tuesday to Palm Beach 4-3 in 11.
Henry Arias (0-1) was handed the loss after allowing four straight hits to start the bottom of the 11th against the Cardinals. The last hit was a dropped fly ball in center when Ben Revere realized he was too deep to throw home with the bases loaded. Charles Kingrey crossed the plate with the winning run.
Pitcher Mike McCardell, 24, was named FSL Pitcher of the Week (April 20-26), allowing one hit over six innings for his first win on April 24 at Jupiter.
