Spend Father's Day with the AppleSox
June 15, 2021 - West Coast League (WCL)
Wenatchee AppleSox News Release
The Wenatchee AppleSox, winners of four-of-their-last-six, return to action after four days off when they host the Bend Elks for three games at Paul Thomas Sr. Stadium, beginning Friday at 6:35 p.m.
The AppleSox are buoyed by tremendous pitching, which has limited opponents to two-or-fewer runs in four-of-nine games so far. Their 3.62 ERA is fifth-best in the WCL, as of June 14. They also have compiled a 1.36 WHIP (Walks and Hits per Innings Pitched) that is third-best in the league.
The AppleSox are 36-42 in WCL games against the Elks but are 19-18 vs Bend in home games. Non-league games included, the AppleSox have won 43 of 93 games against the Elks. The Elks enter play Tuesday night with a league-worst 6.49 ERA. They have only played six WCL games but are a league-worst 1-5 entering their home series tonight against the Ridgefield Raptors.
Father's Day Weekend promises to be a special one at Paul Thomas Sr. Stadium. Friday night, the Apple Blossom Royalty will meet and greet with fans before the 6:35 series-opener and that evening's game will also be televised live on the NCWLIFE Channel. Saturday evening is College Night and all fans are encouraged to wear apparel for their favorite university. Sunday is Father's Day and the series finale in a 5:35 p.m. first pitch.
