Braves Lose, 6-1, as Fireflies Rally
A nice crowd turned out for a clash between the Columbia Fireflies and Rome Braves.

The Rome Braves got a superb performance from pitcher Jesus Amezcua, but the Columbia Fireflies still won the game, 6-1. Amezcua threw 7.0 innings of 4-hit ball. Jediah Childers claimed the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 1.1 innings. His record stands at 2-2.

Columbia used the timely hitting of Sergio Aranda to seize the win. The shortstop stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Fireflies on top, 3-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Nice to get this one," said Aranda. "Wins have been hard to come by."

The Fireflies are now 19-43.
