Fireballs Continue Hot Start to Season With Win
Joplin starter Jeff Farrar pitched effectively against the Detroit Death Stars at The Firepit. The left-hander led his team to a 9-5 win. Farrar, the winner, moves to 1-1. He threw 7 innings of 2-hit ball, while fanning 1 and giving up 3 walks. Victor Pecina earned the save for Joplin, his 5th.

Joplin right fielder Cody McNamara went deep in the bottom of the third. His 2-run home run off Detroit pitcher Javy Cabrera put the Fireballs in front, 3-0. It was his 1st home run of the season.

"We're in a marathon, not a sprint," said Farrar. "But I like how we're playing right now."

The Fireballs keep rolling, raising their record to 9-4.
