Both teams had their chances, but the Columbia Fireflies eventually prevailed.

The Fireflies grabbed a win, 6-5, at State Mutual Stadium, overcoming a fine effort from Rome pitcher R.J. Scott. Scott went 6.1 innings and allowed 2 runs. Chance Denson, now 5-4, picked up the win in relief. He allowed 1 run on 2 hits in 2.2 innings. Charley Schumer collected his 27th save.

Columbia relied on the bat of Elijah Brooks to get the win. The third baseman ripped a 2-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to put the Fireflies ahead, 3-2. For the game, Brooks had 1 double and 1 home run in 4 at-bats.

"Enjoyed this one," Brooks told the Columbia Daily. "But it's back to work tomorrow."

The loss makes Rome 54-79.
