Firebirds Edge Snakeyes, 3-2
Crowds lined up early in front of Petco Park, eagerly awaiting the start of the 2026 Continental Baseball Association season. On the mound was Ranger Suarez for the visiting Phoenix Firebirds and Robbie Ray for the hometown San Diego Snakeyes. In a spirited contest, the Firebirds pulled out the win, defeating the Snakeyes by the score of 3-2. Especially impressive was Robbie Ray. Phoenix reliever Luis Gil was the winner. His record is now 1-0. The losing pitcher was Robbie Ray. Edwin Diaz was called on to finish, recording his 1st save.

Freddie Freeman, who finished 2nd in the UL in extra base hits with 90 in 2020, helped out the Phoenix cause in the top of the sixth inning with a run-scoring single. For the game, the first baseman was 1-4.

"We'll take some time to unwind," said Freeman, "and then get after the next one."
