Wetmore Pounds 2 Homers in 10-7 Panthers Win
Sled Dogs Ballpark was the site of the home opener for the Juneau Sled Dogs. The contest featured a prime matchup between Erwijn Hekman of the visiting Buckeye Local Panthers and Adam Downing of the Sled Dogs. The final score was 10-7, the Panthers getting the win. Tim Wetmore turned in the best performance. Hiroshi Matsui picked up his 1st save of the season.

Buckeye Local used the timely hitting of Chad Hubbard to seize the win. The designated hitter stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Panthers on top, 6-5. It was his only hit in 2 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"A great game, a great day," said Wetmore about the win. "I can't complain."
