The Wenatchee AppleSox aim to salvage their series with the Corvallis Knights this morning at 10 a.m. According to longtime AppleSox statistician Bruce Bennett, this is the first league game to start in the morning in the 21-year history of the AppleSox. The Sox have dropped the first two games of this series.

The AppleSox enter this morning's game in the middle of a rough stretch on the mound. they have given up 49 runs over the last seven games, good for a 7.23 ERA. The AppleSox have lost five-of-their-last-seven, four of which have come on this six-game road trip. However, the AppleSox have scored four runs in each of their last eight games, something that they only did in four of the season's first nine games.

The AppleSox are looking to claim their first win against the Knights today since June 12, 2018. Last night, they fell 9-6. Dakota Duffalo went 3-for-4 but the AppleSox only collected three other hits, with Michael O'Hara, Adam Grob and Tino Bethancourt also notching hits. the AppleSox struck out 12 times, four off their season-high. If the Sox are to homer today, it will be the first time on this road trip and the first since Bethancourt's two-out, two-run shot on June 20 against Bend at home. The AppleSox took two-of-three from Cowlitz to open this road trip, but currently sit 2-3 on the season-long venture from home.

Corvallis looks to continue to hold its South Division lead and add to its season-best six-game winning streak. Five Knights collected multiple hits last night including Travis Bazzana and Nate Nankil both recording three-hit efforts. The Knights have scored four-or-more runs in the second inning in both games of this series and are outscoring the AppleSox 10-0 in the second inning through two games. The only lead the AppleSox have held in this series was for the first inning-and-a-half of Friday's series opener. 2021 Scoring By Inning 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Total Opponents 06 23 13 18 22 08 06 09 05 03 113 AppleSox 13 05 12 17 05 05 06 13 06 00 83 2 Game Date Opponent W / L Score Winner/Loser/Save Record Time 1 6/1* NW Star Academy* L 8-3 LaFever (1-0) /Mayes (0-1) 0-1* 3:05 2 6/2* NW Star Academy* L 7-6 Wilson (1-0)/Haswell (0-1) 0-2* 2:48 3 6/4 @ L 6-0 Giroux (1-0)/Gorrell (0-1) 0-1 2:19 4 6/5 @ Portland Pickles W 4-2 Lockhart(1-0)/Snyder (0-1)/Hatton(1) 1-1 2:46 5 6/6 @ Portland Pickles L 11-1 McVay (1-0)/Rasmussen (0-1) 1-2 2:54 6 6/8 W 5-0 Salinas (1-0)/N.
