Fireflies Defeat Crawdads, 3-2
The Columbia Fireflies eked out a 3-2 win versus the Hickory Crawdads at L.P. Frans Stadium. Nobody did more than pitcher Noel Anderson. He was terrific. Jack Barclay recorded his 27th save for Columbia. The Fireflies are now 57-62, while the Crawdads fall to 65-54.

Columbia used the bat of Plácido Gonzalez to get the win. The right fielder hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Fireflies ahead, 3-1. It was his lone hit in 3 at-bats, but it did its damage.

Gonzalez told a Columbia Citizen reporter that he was "more than satisfied" with the win.
