MONTEVALLO, Ala. – The University of Montevallo baseball team lost in the second game of a doubleheader on Saturday afternoon 4-3. UM is now 4-4 on the year and 4-4 in Gulf South Conference play. The Falcons won the first game of the doubleheader on Saturday and had a 3-0 lead in the second game, but were not able to clinch the weekend series in game two.

Asa Awbrey roped a triple down the right field line that sent Riley Cain across home plate. Ben Teel then knocked a double down the left field line that sent Awbrey home and put the Falcons up 2-0. Brennan Ferguson stepped up next and hit a sacrifice fly to right field that enabled Teel to score and give Montevallo a 3-0 lead.
 
Union used a three-run fifth inning to tie the game, thanks in part to a two-run homer.
 
Neither team was able to find the scoreboard again until the bottom of the ninth.
 
Union won the game in walk-off fashion by way of a walk with the bases loaded and two outs.
