Last Game

On Tuesday night, the AppleSox fell to the River City Athletics at Paul Thomas Sr. Field in the 2018 home opener. In a non-league, the AppleSox took a 5-0 lead after the first, but would give it up after the Athletics scored three times in the third and added three more in the fourth. 

It was the second straight game that the AppleSox scored seven or more runs. Every AppleSox batter reached base at least once and eight batters reached two or more times. Additionally, the AppleSox thrived when batting with two outs, going 5-10 with three walks in those scenarios. 

Tonight's promotion

This evening, there will be wine tasting available for adult fans aged 21 and over. Horan Estates Winery and Icicle Brewing beer will both have tables on the third-base side near the concessions. 

What's Next

The AppleSox wrap up their first homestand of the year against the Highline Bears. First pitch at Paul Thomas Sr. Field is at 7:05 p.m. Tickets can be purchased at the ballpark or online at applesox.com
