Fireballs Roll to 9-3 Win Over Bumblebees
|
The Joplin Fireballs beat the Pasadena Bumblebees, 9-3, at The Hole. The win was largely due to the efforts of first baseman Mark McGwire Jr., who captured player of the game honors. He went 3-4 with 3 singles and a walk. He scored 3 times. Edwin Santiago earned the win to go to 1-0. He allowed 3 earned runs on 6 hits, with 4 walks and 1 strikeout. The Fireballs, now 4-2, have been playing some good baseball.
With scoring opportunities rare, the Fireballs had to cash in when they had the chance. One such opportunity presented itself in the top of the third, when second baseman Mike Montero hit a run-scoring single. The single came off Eddie Ascencio and made the score 4-2, Fireballs. Montero was 3-5 with a double and 2 singles, while adding 3 RBI.
"We played hard and won," said McGwire Jr.. "Sometimes, baseball really is that easy.'
