Fireballs Knock Off Raptors, 8-4
The Omaha Raptors and Joplin Fireballs were greeted by an enthusiastic crowd at Anchorage Municipal Stadium.

The Joplin Fireballs bested the Omaha Raptors by a score of 8-4, with shortstop Edgardo Chávez getting the main credit. On the day, Chávez was 2-3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2 for the Fireballs. Joplin reliever Bill Barnes picked up the win, upping his record to 3-2. Graham Hardingham took the loss.

Chávez contributed when he drew a walk, driving in 1 run in the top of the sixth. Coming with one out and the bases loaded, the walk proved to be critical to helping Joplin get the win.

Chávez told the Joplin Times: "Sometimes the big stage is not big enough for me."

The Fireballs are now 67-70, while the Raptors fall to 56-82.
