Steedman Leads Fireballs to Win
Joplin left fielder Walter Steedman had a 6-RBI performance, which helped his team grab a 16-5 win over the Astoria Argonauts. Joplin reliever Patrick Johnson picked up the win, bumping his record to 3-1. Ricardo Castros was collared with the loss. Their 56-56 record puts the Fireballs 4th in the Blake Camden League Youppi Division.

An important at-bat for Joplin came with two out in the top of the fifth. With runners on 2nd and 3rd, Steedman hit a run-scoring single, which contributed to the Fireballs win.

"I'm just happy to help the team win," Steedman told the Joplin Times.
