Firebirds 3-0 Victors Over Asheville
The Rome Firebirds went home winners at State Mutual Stadium, thanks in large part to starter Dan Jackson. Jackson stifled the Asheville Tourists, enabling Rome to grab the 3-0 win. In 6.2 innings, Jackson surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 6 and walking 1. He allowed no runs. The win gives Rome a season record of 79-49.

With scoring opportunities rare, the Firebirds had to cash in when they had the chance. One such opportunity presented itself in the bottom of the fourth, when catcher Lou Britt hit a 2-run single. The single came off Jesús Luna and made the score 2-0, Firebirds. Britt was 2-4 with a double. He drove in 2 runs.

"It takes a lot of things to win a ballgame," said Rome manager Aaron Holbert. "It's usually not just one thing."
