Sierra holds on to complete 3-game sweep

Friday afternoon's series finale between Folsom Lake and Sierra looked like a 10-run blowout until the Falcons rallied for eight unanswered runs over the final four innings to make for a very interesting game.  The Falcons had the tying run at the plate in the bottom of the ninth when the Wolverines finally got the final out on a popup to second base to record the 11-9 win.  The Falcons had trailed 11-1 midway throught the sixth inning, adding four runs in the sixth and four more in the ninth.  James Powers' two run single in the sixth and Andrew Williams' two-run single in the ninth were the key hits for the Falcons as they piled up 13 total hits against the Wolverines.  Relievers Brian Baker and Tyler Cochran blanked the Wolverines over the final three innings, but too much damage had already been done. 

Next week, the Falcons play Diablo Valley with home games on Tuesday and Saturday.
