Syracuse, N.Y. -- With his team trailing by one and down to its last out, Irving Falu launched a two-run home run over the right field fence at NBT Bank Stadium Thursday night, giving the Syracuse Chiefs their second consecutive win in a 7-6 victory over the Buffalo Bisons. The two-game winning streak is the Chiefs' longest in 21 games and the walk-off homer is the first of the season.

Giants safety Stevie Brown.They were in town for Hart's annual free football academy for kids.
