FCL Mets 4 FCL Nationals 3
• C. Sanchez 1⅔ IP, 3H, 3R, 3ER, 3BB, 1K, HR
• Luis 3⅓ IP, 1H, 0R, 0BB, 3K
• D. Perez (L, 0-1) 1IP, 2H, 1R, 1ER, 0BB, 1K

The F-Nats were unable to deliver the clutch hit, going 1-for-10 with RISP including two missed chances in the 7th to drop the season opener to the F-Mets, 4-3. Starter Camilo Sanchez gave up the first three runs on three hits (one HR) and three walks over an inning and 2/3rds. The loss went to Doimil Perez on two singles in the bottom of the 6th with an “assist” from a throwing error that somehow did not render the run unearned despite the the game-winning hit not leaving the infield. Geraldi Diaz collected a double and an RBI while Andy Acevedo singled, walked, and stole two bases to lead the FCL Nationals’ offense. Roster moves: C Geraldi Diaz reassigned from Wilmington for MiLB rehab.
