Fireballs Get Road Win, 8-4
The Joplin Fireballs saddled the Minneapolis Freeze with a loss at The Ice Box. The final score was 8-4. Jay Rykhus, named player of the game, was 3 for 5, including 2 singles and 1 home run. The Joplin third baseman scored 2 runs and drove in 3. Jose Mata, the winner, improved to 4-1. He held the Freeze to 2 earned runs on 5 hits over 5 innings, while striking out 2 and walking 0. Joplin is now 30-33, Minneapolis 43-20.

The Freeze had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Fireballs going into the top of the third inning. That changed quickly when the 31-year old catcher Reilly Corkum came to the plate. Corkum hit a 3-run home run on a 1-1 sinker from Minneapolis hurler Hector Martinez. It was Corkum's 7th home run of the year.

"We were able to get some things going offensively," said Corkum.
