Because I know you guys were hanging on the edge of your seats about the Chiefs game 1 of a DH today...
<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->he Peoria Chiefs found their offense in the third inning to take Game 1 of Tuesday's doubleheader with the Dayton Dragons 5-4.
Peoria scored four runs in the third with two runs scoring on Nelson Perez's one-out home run and two more scoring on Ryan Flaherty's two-out double.
Mike Perconte (1-0) earned the win with three innings in relief of starter Jeff Beliveau, who went three innings and allowed all four Dayton runs.
Perez's home run, pulled off of the right field foul pole, was the first of the season for the Chiefs.
Rebel Ridling drove in Tony Campana in the bottom of the first to tie the game at one. Ridling has driven in a run in each of the Chiefs' first three games.
