Garcia contributed a big hit, a grand slam home run, for Joplin in the top of the third. With his team trailing 3-1, Garcia took a fastball from Jason Englert and stroked the home run to right. His 4th home run of the season allowed the Fireballs to leap in front, 5-3.

"Wish we'd had more wins to celebrate like this one," said Garcia.
