Minneapolis Defeated by Joplin, 2-1
Joplin right-hander Ramon Franco helped his team edge Minneapolis by the score of 2-1. Franco kept the opposing lineup in check. Orlando Sanchez, who is rated as the 47th best prospect by BNN, earned the save for Joplin. The Fireballs have stumbled out of the gate, getting only their 7th win in 28 games.

Bret Hoekstra hit a run-scoring double off Brice Lavaud in the bottom of the fourth, which put the Fireballs in front, 1-0. In addition to the double, Hoekstra had 1 single, while going 2 for 4.

"Winning never gets dull," said Franco.
