RoughRiders At Sod Poodles For Their Last Series

The RoughRiders are at the Sod Poodles for their final series of the 2021 season.

Out of a 120-game season (one game was canceled due to covid), it comes down to the last seven games for the Frisco RoughRiders along with five other teams. The Midland RockHounds are mathematically still in the picture but they need a small miracle to make it.

As of now here is the race for the post-season in the Double-A Central.

Team Record Winning Percentage
Wichita Wind Surge 65-49 .570
Frisco RoughRiders 61-51 .545
Arkansas Travelers 62-52 .544
Northwest Arkansas Naturals 60-53 .531
Tulsa Drillers 60-54 .526

This last 7-game series with the Amarillo Sod Poodles at Hodgetown is the most important series of the season for the RoughRiders.

The Frisco RoughRiders have a 13-10 against the Amarillo Sod Poodles this season.

The RoughRiders really need to win five of the seven games. If they are able to do that, they should be able to secure that 2nd spot in the five-game post-season.
