The Dollywood Partons topped the Kalamazoo Comets, 14-3, at Wizards Stadium. Dollywood second baseman Dan McNamara was a spark plug for the offense. He was 4 for 5 with a home run and 3 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Dollywood, at 94-33, is cruising.

Justin Hunt, who is tied for 8th in the S-A with a .395 on-base percentage, took Kalamazoo hurler Michael Brumfield deep in the top of the first. His solo home run put the Partons on top, 1-0. In all, Hunt had 1 single in addition to the home run, while going 2 for 3.

"You can't get too high when things go well, or too low when things go bad. Right now, I'm just happy we got the win," Hunt told the Dollywood Daily News.
