Mustangs Win, 7-2, Over Joplin
The Billings Mustangs polished off the Joplin Fireballs by the score of 7-2. The largest share of the credit belonged to first baseman Nick Rivard. Rivard was 2 for 5 with a home run, while scoring 2 times and driving in 3 for the Mustangs. Alex Mata locked down his 3rd save. The Mustangs are now 34-63, while the Fireballs fall to 37-59.

Billings won the game in part because of Javier Lopez. The left fielder ripped a 3-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Mustangs ahead, 3-2. For the game, Lopez had 1 double and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.

"Pleased with the effort and the win," said Mustangs manager Brad Lyons.
