As Advertised, Part Two; Wichita Wins, 8-4

June 23, 2021 - For the second consecutive night, the Wichita Wind Surge were "as advertised." In Tuesday's opener, the Double-A Central's leading hitter, Jose Miranda, was the key figure. Wednesday night, the league's leading pitcher was front and center as Wichita defeated the RockHounds, 8-4, at Momentum Bank Ballpark. Josh Winder gave up a leadoff single to Nick Allen in the last of the first. The right-hander, who entered the game with a league-leading 2.08 earned run average, then retired the next 18 batters in-a-row. By the tim... Full Story

Appearances Are Not Deceiving; Wichita Wins, 6-1

June 22, 2021 - Entering Tuesday night's game, Wichita's Jose Miranda appeared to be ... on paper ... the best overall hitter in the Double-A Central League.

After All That, a Walk; Amarillo Wins, 12-11

June 20, 2021 - Saturday night in Amarillo, the RockHounds and Sod Poodles combined for 23 runs, 24 hits, seven errors and seven home runs, only to have the game decided ... on a walk. Alek Thomas drew a bases-loaded base on balls in the last of the ninth inning, breaking an 11-11 tie, as the Sod Poodles came out on top in a game that had seen the RockHounds come all the way back from a 6-1 deficit to take an 11-9 going into the final inning. Amarillo built a 6-1 lead through four innings before the 'Hounds rallied back, beginning wit... Full Story
