Kodiak @ Eagle River-Chugiak, Game 1 of 2

The Grizzlies brought Jeremie Dessureault to the mound, a former Jet, to go against rookie Warren Turner. Turner was rocked for 8 runs in two and a third innings, and the Grizzlies went on to crush the Jets, 11-5, disappointing over 1000 Chugiak fans who came out to see the front end of a doubleheader on a soggy Tuesday. The best the Jets can now hope for is a four-way tie.

Kodiak @ Eagle River-Chugiak, Game 2 of 2

The Jets had to go with another rookie pitcher, Madison Griffin (Charles Pretty would ordinarily have pitched one of these two, but was injured), while the Grizzlies went with veteran Jesse Alexander. In a controversial move, Navarro benched some of the Jets' starters: Botfield, Horswill, Lepine, and Keddy. The Grizzlies took a quick 3-0 lead in the first, but the Jets battled back to win it 8-4, in front of a sellout crowd for the evening game.

Bethel @ Anchorage (AGP)

The Mushers went with Leif Morris as their starting pitcher, while the Glacier Pilots countered with Alastair Baker. Unexpectedly, this one became a pitchers' duel. It was tied 1-1 in the second and stayed that way until extras. The Mushers ended up using a total of six pinch-hitters in a desperate quest for the win, and in the tenth Adam Joly hit a solo shot off Baker, who completed the ten-inning complete game but took the 2-1 loss.

So here are the standings now:

Bucs........58-49
Mushers.....58-49
Grizzlies...58-49
Jets........57-50

Tomorrow, the Mushers and Pilots face off again, the Grizzlies meet the Jets in a rainout makeup, and the Bucs host the Oilers for the same. The Jets have to beat the Grizzlies and hope for Pilot and Oiler victories to force a four-way tie for the division lead. For the other three teams it's very simple: win and you're guaranteed at least a tie.
