assignment Slugfest Ends In Falcons Loss
Sunday 5:00PM August 23rd, 2015
The Falcons put out tons of offence, including 6 home runs, but it wasn't enough as the always entertaining Xtreme Contracting sent them packing by a final score of 23-18 in a time-shortened 5:00 pm game on K2 Field at Maypo Yards.

This was quite the game offensively for the Falcons. With the previously mentioned 6 home runs, they also left ZERO runners on base. Several players had multiple RBI, and the list looks like Antonio Cromartie is listing his kids: Tank (5), Curtis' Dad (3), G3 (3), Goliath (3), Big Cat (2), The Legend (1), DK (1).

The game was nealy suspended in the second inning when Big Cat and Rick Mace collided at second base. You often don't get video highlights from Falcons games, but footage of the collision is below:



Unfortunately, Xtreme had 5 dingers of their own, and they scored in every inning but the first.

Pregame Checklist:
Check!Enough players to field a team?
Check!Bats?
Check!Scoresheet?

Cycle Watch: The last time a Falcon hit for the cycle was May 19, 2010. Tank, Goliath, and Big Cat were all only a triple short of the cycle today.

Game Notes: This is the Falcons' longest winless streak since June 2 - 25, 2012 when they went winless in 6. Big Cat Joined the team for their next game on July 2, 2012. Draw your own conclusions... As the Falcons MVP race comes to a thrilling conclusion please remember that the league doesn't allow stolen bases, because if it did, the MVP vote wouldn't even be close...
