Fans who came to The War Dome watched the Chicago Titans and the Joplin Fireballs fight to the finish.

The Titans took Joplin pitcher Gerard Kotas's best shot and still were able to claim a win at The War Dome. The final score was 4-3, Chicago. Kotas went 8 innings and allowed 3 earned runs, striking out 6. The Titans' win now puts them at 37-49.

Norio Kubo was the walk-off hero for Chicago. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth, the Chicago center fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"This place was rockin'," said Kubo.
