We’re totally running out of words to describe what the Sky Sox have done this season, but they continue to do whatever it is they’re doing. Simply put, the Sky Sox gave up a lot of runs early, trailed 8-3 heading to the bottom of the ninth, scored five runs to force extras, and won…
The Sky Sox have this terrible habit of giving up runs over the first three innings of a game. Entering play Wednesday, Colorado Springs had been out scored 140-to-84 over the first three innings, including 60-to-32 in the FIRST INNING. Unfortunately, the trend continued with the Cubs scoring four runs in innings 1-3 en route…
The Sky Sox and Cubs split a lengthy doubleheader yesterday at Security Service Field with Colorado Springs taking the first game 6-5 and the Cubs blasting off in the second game 15-5. Iowa jumped out to 5-2 lead in the afternoon tilt, but the Sox used 8 pitchers on the mound, one on the basepaths and…
The Sky Sox wrapped up a road trip to forget with a 5-0 loss to the Memphis Redbirds last night at AutoZone Park. Josh Hader’s Triple-A debut was spoiled by the shutout loss, but he did well and completed six innings, allowing 2 runs on 1 hit, 4 walks, and a season-high 9 strikeouts. On…
Some nights you just have to tip your cap to an opposing player, and that’s what the Sky Sox had to do last night as Memphis’ 34-year old veteran righty Jerome Williams tossed a complete-game shutout en route to the 2-0 win. Colorado Springs had their best opportunity to score in the first when Orlando…
Oh what a night for Will Middlebrooks! The Sky Sox corner infielder had a monster day at the plate and connected for a solo home run in the top of the 10th which gave the Sox a 7-6 lead they would not relinquish. Colorado Springs began the night hot out of the gate with a…
It is no secret that the Sky Sox have struggled offensively on this road trip, so when Andy Wilkins crushed a go-ahead grand slam in the top of the ninth inning and put Colorado Springs up 5-2, it looked like the burden had been lifted and a second road-trip win was secure. However, the bottom…
The Sky Sox can’t wait to play again and not have it be in New Orleans as they fell 11-2 in the series finale Tuesday morning in the Big Easy. Brent Suter was certainly not to blame as he allowed just one run over five innings of work in his start. The offense was led…
The Sky Sox looked to be on the way to their third straight shutout loss as they entered the top of the ninth down 1-0, but after a little good fortune and some timely hitting the Sox plated a pair in the final frame and held on to win 2-1. The two runs ended Colorado…
The Sky Sox have found the Big Easy to be the Big Queasy for their offense across the first two games of the series. Yesterday afternoon the Sox were blanked by the same 3-0 margin they saw in the rain-shortened tilt on Saturday night. It marked just the ninth time Colorado Springs had been shutout in back…
