The next night, Lincoln County completed the series sweep of Warren County, 10-3. The Falcons put up 13 hits as a team, highlighted by a long ball from Colton Tate.

Lincoln County returned home two nights later to shutout Tullahoma, 6-0. The Falcons got a six-inning start from sophomore Marshall Smith and extended their homerun streak to five games, this time thanks to Rhett Persell.
