Paczkis Continue Hot Start to Season With Win
Canton rode a decent outing from starter Pete Tolbert to victory over the Joplin Fireballs at Mckinley Park. The final score was 8-2. In 7.1 innings, Tolbert surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 6 and walking 1. He allowed 2 runs. The Fireballs, now 7-18, continue their slow start.

The Paczkis got a big at-bat from catcher Sabino Acosta. For the game, Acosta went 1 for 2 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. In the bottom of the fourth, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a 2-run home run. His 4th home run of the season gave Canton a 4-2 lead.

Acosta expressed little emotion after the game. "Every game we win now," he said, "is one less win we'll need to get in the end."
