St. Lucie Mets throw second no-hitter of the season

This time it was Tyler Yates and Chad Elliot combining to hold the Palm Beach Cardinals hitless over seven innings.

In other Mets minor league pitching news, Scott Kazmir had his longest outing of the season yesteday, going six innings for Capital City, striking out six, walking none and giving up one run on three hits. Kazmir is 0-1 with a 2.73 ERA, although his record is pretty meaningless given that he's not been allowed to pitch the five innings necessary to earn a win until yesterday. The important stats are that he's struck out 42 and walked 15 in just 29.2 innings.

And finally, Phil Seibel threw six scoreless innings for Binghamton yesterday. Seibel gave up five hits while striking out eight and walking just one. He's now struck out 20 in his last 20 innings and not allowed an earned run over the same span.
