Firestorm Rally For 3-1 Win
The 2011 season did not get off to quite the start the Houston Astros had hoped, with an opening day loss to the Arizona Firestorm at Minute Maid Park. The final score was 3-1. Starting Pitcher Zack Greinke was the top performer for Arizona. Arizona reliever Cary Hiles picked up the win to move to 1-0. Jesse Hoover suffered the loss. Ehren Wassermann earned the save for Arizona, his 1st.

Arizona used the timely hitting of Julio Falcon to seize the win. The first baseman stroked a 2-run single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Firestorm on top, 3-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"We put together a nice win," Falcon said.
