Juneau and Buckeye Local engaged in a slugfest.

The Juneau Sled Dogs outlasted Nick Gratta and the Buckeye Local Panthers, 20-19. Gratta was impressive in the loss. The Buckeye Local second baseman slugged 3 home runs. He scored 4 times and drove in 6. The 4th-place Sled Dogs lifted their record to 58-78.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the ninth inning, when Juneau second baseman Manny Munoz, facing Jim Unknown, had a run-scoring ground out. It gave the Sled Dogs the 20-19 win.

"This stadium was a-rockin'," said Munoz.
