Fireballs Sneak By Freeze, 3-2
The Firepit played host to some real drama.

In a low-scoring clash between Joplin and Minneapolis, pitcher Juan Manzanares was a difference-maker. The right-hander earned praise for his performance in the 3-2 Fireballs win. Jaime Clayman, now 3-2, was credited with the win in 0.1 innings of relief. He allowed no runs on no hits, while striking out 0 and walking 0.

Matthew Kolenda was the walk-off hero for Joplin. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Fireballs designated hitter hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

Said Kolenda: "What's not to like about a walk-off win?"

The current losing streak for Minneapolis has reached 4 games.
