The Falcons got on the board early on a solo HR by Greg Ussery, his second of the year. Nick McMahon gave a strong start, but the Falcons ultimately couldn't hold down the Loudoun Valley offense, allowing 4 runs to score in the top of the 6th. The falcons went to the bottom of the 7th down 8-4 but made strong push to win which fell just short. Ryan Smith was hit by a pitch to start the inning, followed by clutch hits by Billy Pierce and Zach Phillips to load the bases. This set the table for Ussery's second big hit of the night - a 2 RBI double to right center field. Phillips later scored on a wild pitch to move the score to 8-7, but that is where the Falcon comeback would run out of steam.
