Firecats Thwart Bombardiers, 6-4
Led by 22-year-old Rusty Turner, the Hialeah Firecats knocked off the Cincinnati Bombardiers, 6-4. Turner went 2-4 with a home run, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once for the Firecats. Frank Howerton got credit for the win, improving to 1-1. He allowed no runs on 3 hits in 5.2 innings. The Bombardiers drop to 5-5 and continue their mediocre start to the 2024 season.

Turner put Hialeah up, 5-0, when he hit a grand slam home run off Jason Gaiser in the bottom of the first. His 2nd home run of the season helped the Firecats capture the win.

Hialeah manager John Costa called it "a darn good win."
