Fireballs Slap 3-1 Loss on Peoria
Joplin took on Peoria in a contest which featured a pitchers' duel. Evan Hamilton, in particular, was fantastic. The Joplin right-hander helped his team snag the win, 3-1. The winning pitcher was Hamilton, now 6-5. He tossed 7 innings of 3-hit ball, while walking 3 and fanning 7. The loss makes Peoria 30-47.

Joplin took a 3-1 lead on George Durand's 12th home run of the season. The solo home run, which Durand hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Peoria pitcher Chris Maloney visibly frustrated.

"We put some tough at-bats on some tough pitches," said Joplin manager Daniel Petro.
