The Columbia Fireflies topped the Greensboro Grasshoppers by a score of 4-2. Leading the way was catcher Phil Ege. Ege was 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for the Fireflies. Columbia reliever Robby Grewe was the winner. His record is now 3-2. Simone Herran took the loss. Picking up the save was 20-year old left-handed pitcher Brad Wiggins.

Had Ege not come through in the top of the seventh, who knows how the game would've ended? But with two down, Ege hit a run-scoring single. The Fireflies took the lead, 3-2, and never looked back.

"I felt we were ready to go," said Columbia manager Tony Acosta. "Our pregame was pretty good."

The Fireflies sit in last place in the Southern Division with a record of 27-51.
