BONNERS FERRY — Jesse Dunham didn’t allow a run as he struck out 6 and walked the lead off batter of the game and only allowed two hits to secure a 5 inning, 10-0 win over rival, Timberlake Tigers. The win improves Dunham’s record to 4-0 in the season.

The Badgers scored in every inning, except the second, and was led by Shayne Walker who went 2 for 2 with a double and 5 RBI. Dunham, Brady Bateman and Pacen Pluid all had doubles in the game as well. Dunham also helped his cause knocking in 3 runs for the Badgers.

The win improves the Badgers overall record to 10-2 and 3-0 in Intermountain League play, as they head to Priest River Saturday, April 22, to take on the Spartans. The next home game for the varsity Badgers will be Tuesday, May 2, and will be senior day honoring Jesse Dunham, Nick Sabin, Raul Rodriquez, Kaleb Stockton and Kevin Gray. Pre-game ceremony will start at 4 p.m. Please come and support our graduating seniors on this special day!
