assignment Falcons Deliver Storm's First Loss Of 2016
Friday 8:00PM May 27th, 2016
What a country, eh? It was less than two weeks ago that these two teams met to freeze their Hot Dot balls off in a game where it was so cold that every player on the field wondered if life would ever get better. The Falcons lost that game by four touchdowns. On this night, however, the Falcons turned those tables and got that win back with a hard-fought 16-10 victory over the President's Division leading Storm in weather that made it seem like Hell itself had arrived at the field.

The Storm will most assuredly be doing some soul searching and roster adjustments after having now lost half as many games as they did in all of 2015, and it's not even June yet!

In a trend that just won't quit, Barry and Shizzle were both called out for doing something awesome.

SLF hit his first three-bagger of the season, but continued a disturbing trend started by Dinner on Tuesday of following up a triple by hitting into a double play.

Poutine continue his march unabated to the team MVP, crushing two dingers and going 4 for 5.

No one told me, but it was family night at the ballpark, with a flock of Jenkinses's, Mommy and Doggy Thompson, Mrs. G3, and Dinner brought his kid Breakfast to watch a well played game.

It was also Throwback 80's night, with "The other half of Duran Duran" on the Storm side and the Thompson Twins rocking the throwback Falcons jerseys on the 1st base side.

Inside-the-park Home Run Watch: The last time a Falcon hit an inside-the-park home run was July 23, 2012.

Game Notes: Sunday is Pizza Night. Pay up...
