Columbia Gets 6-4 Win Versus Lexington in 10
The Columbia Fireflies racked up a win at Whitaker Bank Ballpark, bumping off the Lexington Legends, 6-4, in 10 innings. Willie Romo, who started for Columbia, pitched effectively for his team. Columbia reliever Johnny Orellana was the winner. His record is now 3-1. The losing pitcher was Jose Arias. Columbia is in first place in the Southern Division with a record of 42-19.

Columbia used the timely hitting of Brendan Francois to seize the win. The shortstop stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the tenth inning to put the Fireflies on top, 4-3. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"It's a satisfying feeling, to win like we did," said Francois.
