Sled Dogs Grind Out 1-0 Win
Fans saw a dandy of a game between the Juneau Sled Dogs and Jacksonville Nationals.

The Juneau Sled Dogs banked on Juan Perez and he turned in a masterful performance. The right-hander kept the Jacksonville hitters in check. The final score was 1-0, Sled Dogs. Juneau, at 56-30, occupies second place in the Southern Conference West Division.

Had Ryan Hardeman not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 1st, Hardeman hit a run-scoring double. That made the score 1-0, in favor of the Sled Dogs.

"It wasn't easy, but we got it done," said Hardeman.
