While Ben LaVier delivered a dominant effort on Tuesday, a win just wasn't in the cards for First Flight. LaVier struck out eight batters over five innings while giving up just two earned (and two unearned) runs off six hits (and only one walk). The performance also marked the fewest walks (one) he has had since back in March.
Even though LaVier couldn't lead First Flight over Holmes, he won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. Sadly, LaVier's big day wasn't enough to stop the loss, which snapped the Nighthawks' three-game streak of wins at home. With the streak broken, LaVier and the Nighthawks surely have a bit of extra motivation heading into Thursday's match.
