GreenJackets Deal Fireflies 5-4 Loss
The Augusta GreenJackets wiggled past the Columbia Fireflies, 5-4, at Spirit Communications Park. The win was highlighted by the performance of Augusta pitcher Ben Schaffer. Aubrey DeLuca, now 4-9, picked up the win in relief. He allowed 2 runs on 2 hits in 4 innings. At 39-27, the GreenJackets are currently third in the Southern Division.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Kevin Sturm? The 22-year old third baseman Sturm stroked a 2-run double in the top of the 11th inning to put Augusta up, 5-3. For the game, he was 3 for 6, including 2 doubles and 1 single.

"If you want to be considered a good team, these are the kind of games you have to win," said Augusta manager Bill Mercado.
