Making up for a postponed game from last week's home stand, the Missoula Osprey (34-28, 14-10) defeated the Great Falls Voyagers (25-35, 14-10) in two games Friday night, winning 7-2 and 3-0. Despite the sweep, Billings also took two against Idaho Falls, keeping the O's three and a half games out of first in the North.

In his first start of the season, southpaw Pedro Zorrilla (W, 4-1) held the Voyagers scoreless in a season-high six innings in game two, allowing no runs and striking out seven, also a new season-high.

At the top of the order, second baseman Cam Coursey finished a combined 5-7, failing to reach base only once. In the first game, Coursey reached on an error in his first at bat, knocking a double and two singles.

First-baseman Spencer Brickhouse got the scoring going in the first game, homering for the fourth time in 2019 in his first at bat. Brickhouse finished 3-5, scoring three times.

The Osprey continue their slate of six games in four days on Saturday night at Centene Stadium, first pitch of game four scheduled for 7:00 pm MDT. The O's and Voyagers face for the final time in 2019 with a Sunday double-header, first pitch at 2 pm MDT.

The Osprey return to Ogren Park at Allegiance Field for the final time of the 2019 regular season on Tuesday, August 27th, to begin a pivotal, three-game series vs Billings.

Bike to the Ballpark Night will also be Back 2 School Night on Tuesday, with the first 500 kids receiving an Osprey backpack, lunch box, or note book to head back to school in style.
