IDAHO FALLS, Idaho (KIFI) - The best team in the Pioneer League showed why it has the league's best record Tuesday, as the Missoula Paddleheads dominated the Idaho Falls Chukars 14-7 in a series-opening win.

The Paddleheads jumped out to an early 4-0 lead, and despite a Chukars comeback to cut the deficit in half, Missoula ran away with this one.

10 unanswered runs later, the Paddleheads led 14-2, and Missoula held that advantage for a seven-run victory.

Next up, the Chukars go for a bounce back victory in the middle contest of this three-game series Wednesday at 7:05 p.m.
