For 31 seasons (1988-2018), Colorado Springs was a Triple-A affiliate in the grand Pacific Coast League. Beginning this June, and for the first time in the city’s long history with professional baseball, two minor league teams will call Colorado Springs home.
Welcome back Rocky Mountain Vibes and hello to the new Colorado Springs SnowSox.
The Vibes, as many of you know, were the replacement team for the Sky Sox after team owner Dave Elmore relocated the Sky Sox to San Antonio following the 2018 season. The Vibes played just one summer 2019 in the short season Rookie Pioneer League. They were all set to play last spring when the COVID-19 pandemic rocked the sports world, shutting down the minors.
