Fireballs Turn Back Detroit, 5-3
The Joplin Fireballs topped the Detroit Death Stars by the score of 5-3, with the biggest share of the credit going to shortstop Dane Hedges. Hedges went 2-4 with a home run. He drove in 2 runs and scored once for the Fireballs on the day. Joel Stapleton, credited with the save, is now 2 for 7 in save opportunities. The Fireballs improved to 36-46.

Joplin took a 4-3 lead on Justin Sciabica's 114th hit of the season. The run-scoring single, which Sciabica hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Detroit pitcher Bernard Young visibly frustrated.

In postgame comments to the Joplin Bulletin, Hedges said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
