Titans Solve Fireballs, 6-3
The Chicago Titans picked up a win at The War Dome, knocking off the Joplin Fireballs, 6-3. Starting pitcher William Clark, who captured player of the game honors, was a big reason why. Chicago reliever William Clark got the win, raising his record to 5-1. Jacob Willard was tagged with the loss. The Titans bumped their record to 39-35 with this latest triumph.

Yoshinori Fujioka was 2 for 4 with a double and a walk for Chicago. The 24-year old right fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the fourth. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 2-2 tie with a run-scoring walk off Jacob Willard. It was his 26th walk of the season.

"We'll enjoy this win," said Clark. "But there's more we hope to accomplish."
