Fireballs Stun Canadians, 6-5
The Joplin Fireballs did just enough to secure a 6-5 victory over the Vancouver Canadians at Stanley Park. Nobody did more than pitcher Stephen Pearson, who captured player of the game honors. Reliever Oliver Cervantes picked up the win. His record improves to 6-3. Steve Strickland took the loss. Balamitra Sriramesh earned the save for Joplin, his 25th of the year.

Joplin left fielder Bo Wie changed the game in the top of the ninth when he belted a 2-run home run off Steve Strickland. His 1st home run of the season gave Joplin a 6-5 lead.

"Stephen's tempo and rhythm were good," said Joplin Fireballs manager Nick Browning. "He was the key to us winning."

The Fireballs raised their record to 50-50.
