AppleSox Announce Updated 2021 Schedule
/The Wenatchee AppleSox have tweaked their 2021 schedule, in accordance with changes prompted by the West Coast League last week.
The AppleSox and other WCL teams in Washington and Oregon will no longer face any opponents from Canada in the regular season, although the League has not ruled out the possibility of a full-league playoff format.
Though the AppleSox will now remove four opponents from their 2021 schedule, they do add a series with the Ridgefield Raptors (July 16-18) gain additional home series with the Bend Elks (June 18-20), Portland Pickles (June 29-July 1) and Cowlitz Black Bers (Aug. 6-8) and play three more non-league games.
The AppleSox now host at least one home game for all 11 weeks of the 2021 season, which was not the case with the previous schedule.
The changes to the AppleSox’ 2021 schedule are few and are as follows…
June 1-2: The Northwest Star Academy will now play two non-league games against the AppleSox at Paul Thomas Sr. Stadium. Previously, the AppleSox were hosting the Nanaimo Night Owls from June 1-3.
June 15-17: Open dates. The AppleSox were hosting the Yakima Valley Pippins for these three games. They will now host the Pippins July 23-25.
June 18-20: The Bend Elks will visit Paul Thomas Sr. Stadium after previously not being scheduled to come to Wenatchee this summer. Prior to the schedule change, the AppleSox would have hosted the Kamloops NorthPaws these three days.
