Mets blow lead for Santana, Marlins win (AP) (sports.yahoo.com)

Even with a rebuilt bullpen, the Mets blew another one for Johan Santana. Cody Ross hit a two-run single off J.J. Putz in the eighth inning, Jorge Cantu cracked his third homer in two games and the Florida Marlins rallied to beat New York 4-3 on Wednesday. Matt Lindstrom escaped a bases-loaded jam in the ninth by getting pinch-hitter Omir Santos on a game-ending popup.
