FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) _ An error by Jorge Toca following Eugene Kingsale's RBI single capped a three-run ninth inning Friday that led the Baltimore Orioles over the New York Mets 4-3.

In the final Florida spring game this year for each team, Jeff Conine doubled off Juan Cerros in the ninth, David Segui walked, Chris Richard singled and Cal Ripken's sacrifice fly tied it.

Richard scored from first when Toca overran Kingsale's single to right.

New York took a 3-1 lead in the eighth off Mike Trombley on RBI singles by Lenny Harris and Jason Phillips.

Ryan Kolhmeier won despite allowing two hits in the ninth. Calvin Maduro, trying to earn the last spot on Baltimore's staff, pitched two scoreless innings, extending his shutout streak to 14 1-3 this spring.

Orioles starter Sidney Ponson allowed one run in five innings _ on Darryl Hamilton's RBI single in the fifth. New York's Kevin Appier gave up one run and four hits in four innings, allowing a home run to former-Met Mike Bordick in the first.

The Mets close their exhibition schedule Saturday at Pittsburgh's new PNC Park. Baltimore plays Saturday at Atlanta.
