After dropping the last two games of their last series, the 91´ó»ÆÑ¼ Falcons suffered their third straight loss Friday night.

In their home-opener series against the Ridgefield Raptors, the Falcons bats were stifled by the Raptors’ pitchers and lost 7-1.

The battle of the birds was over after the fourth inning after the Raptors brought in five runs in the frame. Ridgefield got after 91´ó»ÆÑ¼â€™s pitchers by loading the bases and delivering RBI singles and doubles to keep the Falcons out of the game.
