Tourists Improve to 21-15 with 4-1 Win
Jonathan Diebler never let the Fireflies get in a groove. The right-hander used his bread and butter, his changeup, to pitch the Tourists to a win, 4-1. Norm Thompson earned the save, his 3rd. With the victory, the Tourists upped their record to 21-15.

Asheville took a 3-1 lead on Van Nelson's 3rd home run of the season. The 2-run home run came off Columbia pitcher Vincente Fernández in the bottom of the seventh.

"We'll pop the top on a cold beverage and get back to work tomorrow," Diebler said.
