| Firebirds Even Record with 7-5 Victory | Ray Brackett had a good game, but he could not keep the Tampa Bay Sunrays from falling, 7-5, to the Phoenix Firebirds at Firebirds Ballpark. The Tampa Bay designated hitter went 2 for 4 with a home run. He drove in 3 runs and scored once in the loss. Mario Villalpando, the winning pitcher, is now 8-10. He went 5 innings, allowing 5 runs on 6 hits, while fanning 3 and walking 1. Mike Vega closed it out for Phoenix, earning his 26th save.
Jorge Fischetti, who was drafted in the 3rd round of the 2024 draft, aided the Phoenix cause with a 2-run single in the bottom of the second. For the game, the designated hitter went 1 for 3, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once.
"I'm just looking to see the ball, hit the ball," said Fischetti.
The Firebirds, at 54-54, sit in third place in the United South Division.
