Racers Sneak Past Fireballs, 4-3
The Top of the Hill faithful were treated to a dramatic, walk-off win.

Benefiting from an exceptional performance from Sam Lynch, the Bowling Green Racers defeated the Joplin Fireballs, 4-3. Lynch was 2 for 2 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once for the Racers. The winner was Bowling Green reliever Gerardo Garza, now 4-1. The loser was Pedro Galló.

Simon Leeflang had a nice at-bat for the Racers with no one out in the bottom of the 12th. With runners on 1st and 2nd, the second baseman got hit by a pitch, which would prove important in the Bowling Green win.

"Enjoyed this one," Lynch told the Bowling Green Daily. "But it's back to work tomorrow."

Losses have been few and far between for the Fireballs so far this season. Their record drops to 17-9.
