MISSOULA, MT- The Missoula PaddleHeads opened a 9-game homestand on Tuesday night in the opening game of a 3-game slate opposite the Great Falls Voyagers.

The Voyagers would look like a confident bunch out the gates as well jumping to an early lead in the first 2 innings. Great Falls would also see that lead stand for a large portion of the game. After being held quiet offensively through the first 6 innings, Missoula would find the success they needed when it mattered most.

After 2 quick outs in the bottom of the 7th, Missoula would receive a glimmer of hope thanks to a double from McClain O'Connor. It would prove to be the spark Missoula needed as the next 4 batters would reach base as part of a 3-run rally that tied the score at 4. The PaddleHeads would tally w more runs with 2-outs in the next half inning to take their first lead of the night. Zach Penrod would do the rest in the top of the 9th preserving a 6-4 win for Missoula in game 1 opposite Great Falls.
