AppleSox Return Home to Face NW Star Academy
/The Wenatchee AppleSox return home tonight to face the Northwest Star Academy at 6:35 p.m. at Paul Thomas Sr. Stadium in the first game of their final homestand of the season. The Sox will face the Nighthawks again tomorrow at 6:35, get two days off then play six straight games to round out the 2021 home schedule.
Wenatchee welcomes the Northwest Star Academy to town for the second time this summer. The Nighthawks spoiled the start of the AppleSox season by picking up wins in Wenatchee on June 1 and 2. The first game was sloppy all around as the two teams combined to commit 14 errors. The AppleSox got a late rally going the next night but could not pick up the victory.
The AppleSox return home after dropping all three games of their road trip against the Bend Elks. Last night, the Sox struck first on a solo home run by Adam Grob in the bottom of the first inning for his third homer of the summer. However, the Elks cashed in on five AppleSox errors to win, 8-4. AppleSox pitchers allowed eight runs but only one was earned.
Wenatchee is 5-2 in non-league play and has won every non-league game since losing to the Northwest Star Academy twice to open the season. The AppleSox have a +39 run differential in non-league games against the Nighthawks, the Highline Bears and the Cascade Collegiate League All-Stars. The majority of the non-league games have come this month with the two previous games against the Northwest Star Academy the only ones to come in June.
