Of course this series was destined for a fifth game, of course it was. The season series finished 8-8 between Colorado Springs and Memphis and now it sits at 10-10 after the Redbirds claimed game four 11-8 in 10 innings. The win put them up to 12-0 in extra innings games this season and it…

Friday we discussed the first postseason win for the Sky Sox in 22 years…Saturday we’re talking about the first playoff game along the Front Range in 20 years, and boy what a ballgame it was. It seemingly made up for lost time, and even better, the Sox ended up on the right side of the…

For the first time in 22 years the Sky Sox picked up a postseason win, and they did it in historic fashion! Colorado Springs used three pitchers that combined for a two-hit shutout and the bats provided the support in the 5-0 win over Memphis in game two of the series. The best-of-five set comes…

For the first time in twenty years, the Sky Sox lost a playoff game. Yes, it was the first playoff game in 20 years, but that’s beside the point. The Memphis Redbirds powered up and hit three homers, which accounted for all of their runs, in the 4-1 game one win Wednesday night at AutoZone…

Underused, under appreciated, and now gone. Anyways, the game was a dud as far as the Sox were concerned, but for the Redbirds, the eight-run…

Playoffs start Wednesday, right? Just checking because Colorado Springs and Memphis have played two games in the Springs and they have been very playoff-esque. Friday’s ended 4-3, a come-from-behind victory for the home team and Saturday’s finished 14-11 with the good guys on top in another come-from-behind effort, with a little EXTRA juice. With the…

There is the possibility that Colorado Springs and Memphis could play nine straight against one another over a 10-day span and if Friday night’s game was a sign of things to come, then buckle up because it’s going to be a fun stretch. The Sky Sox fell behind early, but battled back to take the…

The Sox have had their struggles against the Express all season, but they put the struggles behind them and capped off the season series with a 4-0 win Thursday night at Dell Diamond. The victory gives Colorado Springs another winning month, their fifth straight in 2017, and pushed their record to 4-8 against Round Rock.…
