Putz blows lead for Santana, Marlins beat Mets 4-3

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.

Putz (1-2) entered in the eighth and walked his first two batters before Ronny Paulino's sacrifice advanced both runners. Ross then lined a single up the middle, sending Florida (13-8) to its second consecutive victory following a seven-game skid.
