Cats Suffer 9-5 Loss to Fireballs
José Rodríguez had a good game, but he could not keep the Fort Worth Cats from falling, 9-5, to the Joplin Fireballs at The Firepit. The Fort Worth right fielder went 1 for 2 with a home run and 2 walks, while adding 5 RBI and scoring once in the loss. Joplin occupies last place in the Darryl Kile League Joe Torre Division at 58-83.

Hiroya Kuroki had a go-ahead double for Joplin in the bottom of the seventh inning. With no one out and the bases loaded, the 24-year old shortstop hit a 2-run double off Iván Herrera. His 18th double of the season made the score 7-5.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," Kuroki told the Joplin Gazette. "It's as simple as that."
