Fireballs Eke Out 3-2 Win Versus Pasadena
Fans saw a dandy of a game between the Joplin Fireballs and Pasadena Bumblebees.

Joplin right-hander Sterling Livengood helped his team edge Pasadena by the score of 3-2. Livengood kept the opposing lineup in check. Matt O'Connor recorded the save, his 7th.

A defensive lapse proved costly in the contest. In the top of the sixth, with the game tied, Chris Ascione was at the plate when Joplin scored 1 on an error. The miscue enabled the Fireballs to go in front, 3-2.

Ascione called the win the result of "everyone being in sync."

The 6th-place Fireballs now have a win-loss record of 59-97.
