Johnny D!

Sacramento radio legend Johnny Doskow
entertains Sky Sox fans with a medley of hits
from his Outfield days during a rain delay
at Security Service Field at Mile High.


Next year the Sky Sox are moving from the PCL Pacific Northern to the American Northern division. That means that the teams they faced 8 times a year at home will now only come round Security Service Field at Mile High for only 4 games every other year. So, we will only get to see some of our favorite PCL radio personalities every other year. Radio personalities like Sacramento River Cats' superstar Johnny Doskow.

An angry Johnny Doskow knows what he doesn't like.
And Johnny Doskow doesn't like this.

Johnny was the lost forgotten 4th member of the 80's pop sensation The Outfield, known for their mega-hit Your Love,


Johnny, two years are two too many. We'll look forward to seeing you in 2015 (unless the schedule plays out that we'll see you next year and then in 2016)!
Pop sensation and radio god,
Johnny Doskow!

Ridiculously Photogenic Baserunner

Hey look! It's Salt Lake's Trent Oeitjen sliding safe into home against the Sky Sox during the Bees' 3-2 victory on Wednesday, June 12:

SLIDE they said! Yeah. Just you watch me slide.
In fact, Trent was so safe he managed a hella-smile for the camera as he crossed the plate and thus became the Ridiculously Photogenic Baserunner.

Look! It's the Ridiculously Photogenic Baserunner
Easin' on down the road with a smile on his face.
Too awesome Trent! Get this man a prize! Or a puppy! Or something...

Am I safe? Who cares?
All that matters is that I take a good picture

Get A Haircut Punk!

Sox the Fox begs for a ball while Reno Aces' manager Brett Butler
ignores the giant rat and tosses it to someone else.
The Sky Sox and Reno Aces split the first series of the 2013 season. Weather was great for early April and the baseball (except the 4th game that Reno won 14-1) was competitive and entertaining. But we have to ask, what's up with Brett Butler, manager of the Aces, hair? Is a 55 year old man trying to grow a rat tail?

Get a haircut hippie!
Really. It would be kind of cool to see him when Reno returns in July. But he is 55 and probably shouldn't have a rat tail. 

Maybe it's just kind of like a reverse widow's peak.
Meanwhile, new Sky Sox skipper Glenallen Hill came out to make a pitching change in Sunday's 14-1 loss (he made a lot of pitching changes on Sunday) with a big old glob of gum on his helmet.
Glenallen Hill heading back to the dugout.
Hey. What that on his helmet?
Golly! It looks to be a big wad of gum!
Yup! That's gum alright!
Looks like someone got 'pranked'!
If this keeps up it's going to be a good year for PengoSports at the old ballyard!

Hey Sox! Don't spill Jill and Stephen's beers!
(even though they are Reno fans - booooo!)

Congrats to the Reno Aces for winning the 2012 Pacific Coast League title!

Winning makes you D-A-N-C-E!
Oh. Edgmer says, "hey"

Hello Brett Butler! Good job to you!
