Joplin Fireballs (25-43) 0 1 0 1 2 1 0 0 0 5 6 1

Kodiaks Knock Off Fireballs, 7-5
The Calgary Kodiaks downed the Joplin Fireballs, 7-5, at Foothills Stadium. The Kodiaks were led by Mike Grant. Grant was 3 for 4 with a home run and a double, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Danny Gifford recorded the save, his 3rd. The Kodiaks now own a record of 34-35.

Had Cody Pineda not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 2nd, Pineda hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 6-5, in favor of the Kodiaks.

"I just tried to see the ball and put a good swing on it," said Pineda.
