Columbia Wins, 8-3
Columbia right-hander Fernando Tarango pitched his team to victory over the Rome Braves at State Mutual Stadium. The final score was 8-3. The winner was Tarango. He threw 7.1 innings of 5-hit ball. The loser was Bobby Olivares. Columbia is now 11-10.

Columbia used a clutch at-bat from Matt McKenna to capture the win. The right fielder hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Fireflies ahead, 5-0. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Pleased with the effort and the win," said Fireflies manager Mike Keeney.
