Freedom Hope Opening Day Win Bodes Well for Season
|
The Philadelphia Freedom started the 2028 season win an impressive 3-1 win against the Joplin Fireballs at The Bell. Marcus Clifton, who is rated as the 8th best prospect by BNN, was named player of the game. Clifton got the win, improving to 1-0. He allowed 4 hits and walked 1 over 8 innings. Clifton allowed 1 earned run.
The Fireballs had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Freedom going into the bottom of the seventh inning. That changed quickly when the 24-year old shortstop José Guzmán came to the plate. Guzmán hit a run-scoring single on a 0-1 forkball from Joplin hurler Bob Brown. It was Guzmán's 1st hit of the year.
"This isn't football or hockey where you can overwhelm your opponents," Clifton told the Philadelphia Daily. "Everyone gets 27 outs and we happened to make the most of them."
