Ten losses in a row, T-Bones overdue for a victory

After losing 10 in a row – the one last night by a score of 9-8 – the T-Bones go back to work tonight in Sioux City.

Tonight’s game, which starts at 7:05 p.m., will be the last one of this road trip, with the T-Bones coming home to Kansas City, Kan., on Thursday, June 4, to play Amarillo at 7:05 p.m.

Last night, Bobby Doran started the game, lasting 3.1 innings and giving up seven hits, eight runs and three walks. But it was Jonathan Kountis who got the loss for the T-Bones. Kountis pitched two innings, giving up two hits, one run and one walk. He struck out three.

Many T-Bones got hits Tuesday night, and two of them — Nate Tenbrink in the third inning and Kyle Robinson in the sixth inning — hit home runs.

Some promotions are scheduled for the T-Bones’ upcoming home stand. Thursday, June 4, is Throwdown Thursday, with beer selling for $1.25.

Friday, June 5, is Back to the Future Night, with a special appearance by Claudia Wells, who played Jennifer Parker in the “Back to the Future” movie. A DeLorean is expected to be on display. The Falcon skydiving team will skydive into the outfield before the game, which starts at 7:05 p.m.
