Flowery Branch baseball coach Heath Kennedy predicted a much different outing as he observed Johnson during pregame warmups in Game 2 of the Region 8-AAAAA series Wednesday night. As anticipated, the Falcons were off balance for much of the way until gathering their bearings in just enough time for a walkoff, 5-4 win at Hog Mountain Sports Complex. It didn’t surprise Kennedy one bit that the same Johnson (2-13, 0-4 region) team to be blanked 9-0 on Monday led twice in this back-and-forth affair.
