Miami, Sept. 25: Cory Sullivan singled home the tying and go-ahead runs in the ninth inning Friday to rally the New York Mets past Florida 6-5.

The Marlins began the night four games behind Colorado in the National League wild card chase.

Florida, which had won its previous two games, came back from an early three-run deficit and owned a 5-4 advantage going into the ninth.

Leo Nunez (4-5) came on in search of his 24th save, but promptly loaded the bases on singles by Daniel Murphy and Jeff Francoeur along with a walk to pinch-hitter Jeremy Reed.

Sullivan then hit for Anderson Hernandez and stroked an 0-1 pitch into left field for his two-run single. The Mets again loaded the bases with one away, but could do no more damage.

Florida held only a 6-4 lead going into the seventh inning, but the Marlins scored three times in that frame, with Johnson contributing one of his two-run hits.

He had another one in the eighth, during which Florida scored four times. The Marlins had 16 hits overall.
