Haley Leads Fireballs to Win over Freeze
In a high-scoring game between Joplin and Minneapolis, center fielder John Haley was a difference-maker. The 25-year-old earned player of the game honors in the 16-8 Joplin win. He went 2 for 4 with a home run, a double, a walk, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 3 times and driving in 3. Today's win puts Joplin at 44-47, while Minneapolis falls to 41-50.

Joplin first baseman Tamotsu Yamashita contributed to the cause with a grand slam home run in the top of the fourth. For the game, Yamashita was 1 for 4 with a home run and a walk, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once.

"I don't feel you win baseball games by working harder than the other team or 'wanting it more,'" Yamashita told the Joplin Times. "You win just by scoring more runs."
