Mother nature did not get the memo that it was WILL Opening Day, as steady down pours forced the cancellation of 10 out of the 16 games on the schedule. Four teams were able to get their scheduled games in, they were the Valley Bend Blue Jays, Roman Noodles, Lumberkings, and Splunkers.
The Splunkers won the day, going 3-0, with a win versus each of the other three teams in action. Valley Bend won their first two games, with a lopsided victory over the Lumberkings, then a walk off home run win over the Noodles in extra innings, however the Splunkers outdueled them in the nightcap. The Lumberkings dropped their first two, including getting no-hit in the second game, but they persevered in the finale to down the Noodles, 1-0. Roman was missing for the Roman Noodles, so the two man squad had a tall task. They dropped the opener to the Splunkers, then lost two heart breakers to the Blue Jays and Lumberkings, respectively.
