Colorado Springs used three homers and outblasted (that’s a word, right?) the Oklahoma City Dodgers 6-3 in game two of the four game set, Wednesday night at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark. The win marked the second in a row for the Sox and third of the lengthy road trip for the Sox. Lewis Brinson opened the…

  The best laid plans, as they say…Last night’s game was cruising, I mean CRUISING through the first five innings. I think it took all of 1:25 to play the first five frames, maybe less. Brandon Woodruff was in search of his fifth straight win of the season and Trevor Oaks took his sub-two ERA…

Colorado Springs (and the I-Cubs for that matter) could not wait to get out of Des  after a rainy , cold, raw, weekend that saw a five-game series turned into a three-game series. And to be honest, it seemed like they were lucky it wasn’t reduced to a two-game series because of yesterday’s conditions. Regardless,…

Rain, rain, go away, come back never ever ever again during baseball season please and thank you. That’s how that nursery rhyme goes, right? Well, Mother Nature decided to give the Sky Sox and Cubs the weekend off with back-to-back rainouts and now the two teams get set to settle the series with the rubber…

Usually if you score seven runs in any game, home or road, it is enough to win a ballgame. Usually. Last night it was not the case as the Cubs scored the final four runs and won a wild 9-7 affair Thursday night at Principal Park. The Cubs took the 1-0 lead thanks to a…

Brandon Woodruff turned in a season for the ages in 2016. He got on the radar of the prospect world by striking out 173 batters in 158 innings, the most in MiLB. His fastball/slider combo worked to the tune of a 14-9 record and 2.68 ERA in 28 starts across Hi-A and Double-A. So what…

They say the 27th out is always the toughest, right? There was no doubt that that was the case in Colorado Springs’ 6-5 win over the Nashville Sounds Sunday afternoon at Security Service Field. The Sky Sox built a 6-0 lead over the first seven innings of the game and held the same advantage with…

The Sky Sox took a 2-1 lead courtesy of a Brett Phillips solo homer in the seventh inning, but Nashville plated a pair in the eighth and another two in the ninth in the 5-2 game, Saturday evening at Security Service Field. Looking at the score, you wouldn’t think it featured a pitchers dual, but…

All good things must come to an end, and for the Sky Sox two streaks came to a close yesterday as they split a doubleheader with the Memphis Redbirds. The visitors took game one 5-1, the Sox won the second game by the same margin. With the loss Colorado Springs’ six-game win streak came to…

These Sky Sox are something else! They just continue to roll and roll and roll and roll, right to the best start in franchise history at 9-3 through the first 12 games of the season. Wednesday morning’s affair was just icing on the cake for these guys as they fell behind 2-0 after half an…
