The
BlueSox opened up the 2008 season still rolling from last year's
State Tournament run by downing Dassel-Cokato with dominant
pitching, timely defense and red-hot hitting. Joe Huffman
pitched 7 scoreless innings to pick up the win. Nate Johnson
and Aaron Port both picked up 3 hits while Casey Toops went 4 for 5.
"The fire is still in us to get back to the State Championship
game and you could see it as we played tonight. This is a good
way to open the season for the BlueSox", stated BlueSox manager
Josh Kunze. NEXT: BlueSox @ Cold Spring 6PM SAT. |

The
BlueSox opened up Southern Minny East play by squaring off against
cross-town rival, the Austin Greyhounds. Fans enjoyed a
pitchers duel as Joe Huffman and Dave Meyer went frame for frame
through 4 innings. The sox took an early 1-0 lead in the 5th
but that was soon erased as the Hounds put up a 9 spot in the top of
the 6th. The game became out of reach as the scoreboard ended
at 10-2. With the loss, the Sox dropped to 0-1 in league play
and look to find their usual winning ways. NEXT: BlueSox @
Winona 7:30PM WED. |

The BlueSox
came feet away from knocking off last years Class A State champs in
a game that sealed the Sox's fate Friday night. Pinch runner
Brandon Rector was thrown out at the plate trying to score on a
double by Pat Wolard to tie the game. With 2 losses in the
tourney, the Sox were ousted from the Championship round. Dan
Swift had 3 RBIs on a towering blast in the 4th to put the Sox
ahead, but Minnetonka answered back in the bottom of the frame and
went ahead for good in the 5th. The final game for the BlueSox
was cancelled due to rain. NEXT:
