Fire Curb Crush, 6-4
Eugene Murphy did all he could to help his team win. In the end, though, it wasn't enough to keep the Flint Crush from losing, 6-4, to the Franklin Fire at Flint Park. Murphy was 2 for 5 with a home run, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3. Franklin is in 9th place in the Menard's Low A with a record of 38-48.

A critical at-bat came in the top of the eighth inning when the Fire sent 19-year-old second baseman Javier López to the plate with the bases loaded. The youngster shook off the pressure and hit a sacrifice fly, to put Franklin on top, 6-4.

"In baseball, you have your ups and downs," said Flint manager Tim Nelson. "You just try to stay level-headed the whole time."
