Fireballs Prevail, 3-2, Over Minneapolis
Joplin Fireballs starter Nate Lefkowitz hurled his team past the Minneapolis Freeze, 3-2. Reliever Jaime Clayman picked up the win. His record improves to 1-1. Mike O'Neil took the loss. Minneapolis has now lost 4 consecutive games.

Joplin needed the clutch hitting of Frank Wagner to seal the deal. The right fielder swatted a solo home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Fireballs on top, 3-2. For the game, Wagner had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"Nervous? No," said Wagner. "It was my time to shine."
