Flash Win Streak Now at 6 After 12-8 Victory
The timely hitting of Trevor Kitchens helped the Fairfield Flash down the Joplin Fireballs, 12-8. Kitchens went 2-4 with a home run and a walk. He scored 3 times for the Flash. Fairfield reliever Fabien Nuvolari picked up the win, while Danny Covington took the loss for Joplin. With this game in the books, Fairfield is 25-8, Joplin 11-21.

Jason Hinch's at-bat in the top of the sixth was significant, coming with runners on 1st and 2nd and the game tied, 6-6. The Fairfield pinch hitter hit a run-scoring single off Danny Covington to put the Flash up.

In comments to the Fairfield Chronicle, Kitchens admitted he's been told to improve his work habits. "But," he said, "I know when to take it to another gear."
