Tourists Lose as Fireflies Stage Late Rally
Asheville third baseman Layant Pierce had a terrific game, but it still wasn't enough to get his team a win. Pierce was 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once, even as Columbia beat the Tourists, 6-5, in 10 innings. The victory puts Columbia at 37-62.

Columbia used the clutch hitting of Ethan Stokes to snag the win. The designated hitter drilled a 3-run home run in the top of the tenth inning to put the Fireflies ahead, 6-3. It was his lone hit in 2 at-bats, but it was a crucial one.

"It was a test of wills," said Tony Acosta, the Columbia skipper. "I'm glad we came out of it with a win."
