Joplin Rallies to 7-5 Win
Joplin right fielder Tom Castro had a 3-RBI game, which proved instrumental to his team beating the Calgary Cowboys, 7-5. Castro picked up 1 single and 3 doubles in the ballgame. The winner in relief was Birru Bagatui. He is now 1-3. The right-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 3.2 innings. Bill LaForge earned his 15th save, after closing out the game.

Joplin used a timely hit from George Morrissey to get the win. The first baseman stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the ninth inning to put the Fireballs ahead, 6-5. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"You know, at the end of the day, it's about who scores the most runs," said Joplin manager Daniel Petro.

The loss makes Calgary 39-46.
