The Dawgs had a massive seventh inning where they scored eight runs to take a commanding lead that they would not relinquish.

Ryan McFarland (Calgary, Alta.) earned his second win of the season, pitching six innings, allowing eight hits, two runs and finishing with one strikeout. Relief efforts from Connor Robbins (Calgary, Alta.) and Bode Brooks secured the victory.

The offence was powered by McCoy Pearce (Kamloops, B.C.) who went 3-for-4 with three RBIs. Ricky Sanchez, Brendan Luther (Mississauga, Ont.), Alejandro Cazorla (Calgary, Alta.) and Jake Hoskins also contributed by driving in runs for the Dawgs. Alex Stufft made his season debut and collected his first RBI of the season.
