Firebirds Drop Rays, 7-3
The 7-3 Danville win over Princeton was due in large part to Josh Hayes. The Firebirds catcher was 2-3 with a home run, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2. José Moreno earned the win for Danville. He lasted 5.1 innings, allowing 3 runs on 7 hits, while striking out 7. With the win, he raised his record to 1-0. The win has Danville at 3-1.

With Danville leading 2-1 in the top of the fourth, Hayes hit a run-scoring single off Princeton hurler José Ratales. It was the 4th hit of the season for Hayes and put his team ahead, 3-1.

Hayes attributed the win to "a well-rounded effort by the whole team."
