Story by Rick Nelson The Wahkiakum Mules could claim second place in the River Division of the Central League with a victory over the visiting Toutle Lake Ducks.

A loss would likely throw them into a three-way tie with Toledo and Toutle Lake. The winner of a coin toss would host the cross-over game; the other teams would hit the road. The Mules kept their drive for second place intact with a 55-27 win last Friday...
