Firebirds Better BlueClaws, 4-3
Rome registered a win at State Mutual Stadium by beating the Lakewood BlueClaws, 4-3. Pitcher Dan Jackson was one reason why the Firebirds triumphed. Jackson, the winner, moves to 11-3. He threw 7 innings of 3-hit ball, while fanning 7 and giving up 3 walks. The win lifted the Rome record to 71-47.

Luis Rivera had a big 2-run double for the Firebirds in the bottom of the first inning. With Rome leading 1-0 and the bases loaded, he got a changeup from José Ortíz and swatted a double to right. It was his 19th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Firebirds ahead, 3-0.

"Nice, tidy little win," Rivera said after the game.
