Hens Score Late to Nip Fireballs, 5-4
The Joplin Fireballs could not turn a fine performance from pitcher Evan Hamilton into a win. Instead, the Hendersonville Hens prevailed, 5-4. Hamilton threw 6.0 innings of 5-hit ball. The winner was Hendersonville reliever Cesar Gutierrez, now 3-2. The loser was Bill LaForge. At 21-25, the Hens are currently 5th in the RCL AAA Tony La Russa Division.

Hendersonville relied on the hitting of Edwin Castillo to pick up the win. The second baseman ripped a run-scoring single in the top of the tenth inning to put the Hens on top, 5-4. For the game, Castillo had 1 triple and 2 singles in 6 at-bats.

"We put it together and came out with the win," Castillo said in postgame remarks. "That's the main thing."
