The Falcons (1-2) are coming off a series loss in Portland over the weekend and will be looking to get back to the .500 mark on Tuesday night. They face an undefeated NightOwls (3-0) team that swept their opening series at home beating the Walla Walla Sweets in three straight games.

He’ll face lefty Payton Robertson (1-0) for the NightOwls who picked up the win in his first appearance of the summer after just one inning of work on June 3rd.
