While the late offensive production broke the game open, Bradenton also struck first in the top of the second when Joel Mendez blasted a two-run shot to left that gave the Marauders a 2-0 lead. The longball marked his first since joining the Pirates organization this past offseason.
After Lakeland tacked on a run in each of the second and third innings to tie the game at 2-2, Bradenton grabbed the lead back in the top of the fifth when Caro singled ahead of Griffin, who belted a two-run homer down the left-field line that pushed the Marauders to a 4-2 advantage.
