assignment Falcons Lose Fifth Straight
Sunday 9:30PM June 11th, 2017

The Falcons-Storm rivalry runs deep. So deep, in fact, they both childishly use non-current logos for each-other's team in their respective recaps. The teams share some similarities as well, such as helmeted lead-off hitters, and the sharing of scorn from the rest of the league.
SLF lead off the game with some fireworks, but not the good kind, whiffing on strike 3 for a $15 pizza.(Note to the scorekeeper: a backwards K is for a strikeout LOOKING. See the 8:00 PM game on K1.) The Falcons failed to score in the first inning. The offence got going in the second, with five straight singles and a sac-fly, scoring 3 runs. That gave the Falcons a short-lived 1-run lead. Eight runs for Storm in the third, and they were gone.
The Falcons made a game of it however, scoring 5 in the fifth, and 4 in the sixth narrowing the gap to 3 entering the top of the seventh. Outs for the first two Storm hitters in the top of the seventh gave the Falcons hope of a walk-off win, but the next 5 Storm hitters scored, and put this one out of reach.
Two Home Runs In One Inning Watch: The last time a Falcon hit two home runs in one inning was August 29, 2012.
Game Notes: If we get free beer after 6 straight wins, is beer double the price after 6 straight losses? Tune in Tuesday to find out!... It'll probably be triple, because Bill... A $20 night at the plate was enjoyed by SLF, with two strikeouts... Poutine, before finding "the right bat": 0-for-3. After finding it: 5-for-5 with 2 doubles (over two games)... Jr. Thompson put on a clinic at short, demonstrating the lost art of GETTING IN FRONT OF THE DAMN BALL... J-Paq was only a homer short of the cycle, but had 5 RBI!
