鈥淲e have very similar lineups,鈥� Falcons manager Bryan Donohue said. 鈥淓veryone was going out there and competing. It鈥檚 funny how games like this can sometimes come together. I think the biggest thing for us is when the game calmed down. We were able to tag on a couple of big runs that ultimately put us in control.鈥�
In Donohue鈥檚 opinion, the story of the night was Falcons reliever Ian Turner who picthed 5 2/3 innings of relief. 鈥淭urner extended himself longer than he had all summer. It鈥檚 too bad we couldn鈥檛 get the victory for him. We had a couple unlucky things happen late to prevent that. He was great for us.鈥�
