Fireballs Sneak By Flash, 5-4
The Joplin Fireballs racked up a win at The Firepit, bumping off the Fairfield Flash, 5-4. Gordie Woodworth, who started for Joplin, pitched effectively for his team. The win went to Matt O'Connor in relief, making him now 1-3. Tom Gaston took the loss for Fairfield. Joplin is now 5-7.

A defensive lapse proved costly in the contest. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth, an error by the Flash allowed the Fireballs to score the winning run.

Koenigsfeld said this kind of win gives the team "a buzz."
