The Oklahoma City Dodgers went into Wednesday’s game on a two game losing streak. On Tuesday the Dodgers squandered a five-inning / two-hit effort by Jose De Leon in his first appearance of the season. Even though they out hit the New Orleans Zephyrs 7-4, they came away with a 2-0 loss when the Zephyrs scored […]

Third baseman Edwin Rios was selected by the Dodgers in the sixth round of the 2015 First Year Player Draft on June 9th, making him the No. 192 overall pick in the draft. His selection on the one hand might have been a bit surprising for the Dodgers that early in the draft as an infielder […]

On Sunday afternoon left-hander Michael Boyle had his best game of the short 2016 season and arguably the best of his professional career. Boyle was selected by the Dodgers in the 13th round of the 2015 First Year Player Draft out of Radford University in the state of Virginia. He made his minor league debut […]

On Wednesday evening I tuned in early to the Great Lakes Loons game so I could catch the pre-game interview with Loons play-by-play announcer Chris Vosters and his guest. I had no idea who his guest might be but was surprised and pleaded that it was Clayton McCullough who was signed as the Dodgers Minor […]

There have been rain outs, players already going on the 7-day DL, players being advanced to the next level, moments […]

For the second time in as many days the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes scored double-digit wins over the Lancaster JetHawks at The Hangar in Lancaster. Also in as many days they used the long ball to do so.
