Fireflies Hope Opening Day Win Bodes Well for Season
The 2024 season did not get off to quite the start the West Virginia Power had hoped, with an opening day loss to the Columbia Fireflies at Appalachian Power Park. The final score was 4-3. Starting Pitcher Mark Walls was the top performer for Columbia. In 5 innings, Walls surrendered 4 hits, while striking out 3 and walking 2. He allowed 2 runs.

Ruben Ibarra dealt the Power a blow in the top of the fifth. Batting with the bases loaded and Columbia leading 2-1, Ibarra hit a 2-0 changeup for a run-scoring single.

"Honestly, I'm not frustrated," said West Virginia manager Tyler Pastornicky. "The effort was great."
