Firebirds Sneak By Blue Wahoos, 3-2
Baseball fans saw a good contest between the Mississippi Firebirds and Pensacola Blue Wahoos.

The Pensacola Blue Wahoos got a superb performance from pitcher Orlando Ramírez. Still, it wasn't enough to beat Mississippi. The Firebirds won the game, 3-2. Ramírez threw 7.1 innings allowing 3 runs. Jesus Jones was credited with the save for Mississippi, his 2nd of the season.

Mississippi used a timely hit from Rhett Clark to get the win. The second baseman stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Firebirds ahead, 3-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"I felt we were ready to go," said Mississippi manager Billy McMillon. "Our pregame was pretty good."

With the win, Mississippi improves its record to 2-2.
