With a big bounceback win over the Condors, the Bison move to 16-4 on the season and one step closer to making the A.L. playoffs come through Cox Ballpark. To ensure that, we need to keep winning, and we face the red hot Minnesota Gemini this week. We're going to be in the alternate browns for this one, and are featuring pitcher Bowden Francis, who against the Condors went 8 innings, striking out 12 and limiting things to only one earned run as he notched a quality start and a win. #WeAreOK

In an unfortunate bout of déjà vu, the Atoms trailed late against Memphis, stormed back to take the lead, only to once again fall short at the end of the game. We'll look to end the season on a better note, though we'll once again face an opponent who is still fighting for a playoff spot. The New York Blackbirds are hanging onto their chance at a postseason berth by the skin of their teeth, having just knocked off Oakland to stay alive, so they'll be coming into this game hungry. For our final feature of the season, we'll turn to SP/RP Porter Hodge, who hurled 03 1/3 innings, struck out 06, and somehow earned both a win and a save despite the Atoms loss. #03dTimesTheCharm #UpAndAtom

A back-and-forth affair between us and the Masons ended when we finally pulled ahead from them to get the win. Added to that is both the Bison and Atoms losing last week, meaning we could be both the top seed in the AL and the best team in the majors if everything goes our way. We'll welcome the Pros to the Valley for the last game of the regular season as we'll attempt to finish the regular season on a high note. Featured for this week is SP Spencer Arrighetti, who threw 7.2 no-hit innings with 11 strikeouts, earning a quality start and a win. #Thunderstruck

With that, the regular season comes to a close, and the Bison claimed the top spot in the AL and home field throughout the playoffs thanks to the three way tiebreaker with the Atoms and the Thunderbirds. But the Atoms and Thunderbirds are potential future problems. This week, we host the Los Angeles Condors. We swept the season series with them, but that doesn't mean this will be an easy matchup. We'll wear the standard cream home uniforms for this one, and are featuring top player for last week AND the season, outfielder/designated hitter Kyle Schwarber, who has an incredible week with 4 singles, 3 doubles, 5 home runs, and 11 RBIs, crossing the plate for 9 runs himself. Oh, and 3 walks, just for some bonus on base experiences. #WeAreOK

What a game. After falling behind early against Oakland, the Atoms chipped away, and came up big on Sunday to complete the comeback and advance to the NLCS. Now, we'll face an even tougher test, as we welcome the Memphis Kings to Sin City. Memphis swept the season series against us, but there's only one game that matters now. We are (of course) sticking with the black tops and white pants, and our second postseason feature goes to SP Tarik Skubal, who was arguably the best pitcher in baseball this year, going 16-04 with 20 quality starts, 0208 strikeouts, and a 02.53 ERA. The other best pitcher in baseball, naturally, was the Kings' Chris Sale, so expect some stellar play on the mound in this one. #03dTimesTheCharm #UpAndAtom
