Gold Sox Hope to Halt Slide as 1949 Path Echoes
Amarillo’s Gold Sox sit in a tight pack for fifth in the West Texas New Mexico League, 10 games back of Albuquerque, with 1950 looming. Last year they flirted with seventh in July, then rallied to finish second and win a Shaughnessy playoff first round. Pitching woes persist as seven new pitchers have been tried, and management vows to acquire more if possible to lift attendance and fortunes.
