Prospect League

The 2015 Quincy Gems Baseball schedule was release today and the Gems will open up on the road at Danville on May 27. That will be followed by their home opener on May 28 against a brand new team in the Prospect League, the Kokomo Jackrabbits.

The Quincy Gems captured the Prospect League Championship last night as they defeated the Chillicothe Paints 3 to 1 in Ohio and won the three game series 2 games to 1.

With a chance to capture the Prospect League Championship last night with a victory, the Quincy Gems came up on the short side of a 7 to 2 score at the hands of the Chillicothe Paints in Ohio. That loss now sets up a winner takes all scenario tonight as the two teams play the decisive game three.

The Quincy Gems, fresh off of their 9 - nothing win over Chillicothe Paints last night, will make the trek to southern Ohio today to get ready to play what could be the decisive game to determine the Prospect League Championship.

The Quincy Gems pulled out a 5 to 4 victory over the Danville Dans last night in Danville to even the Prospect League's best of 3 Western Division playoff series at one game a piece. With the series tied, the decisive game three will be held tonight in Danville.

Some 1510 fans turned out to watch the Quincy Gems defeat the Terre Haute Rex last night at Q.U. Stadium. Could they have been watching the final game ever for the Quincy Gems?

The Quincy Gems are wrapping up their current season in West Virginia as they try to win the Prospect League Championship. Are they wrapping up the season or their existence? In many ways the Quincy Gems would have been better off to have finished 2nd in their division rather than winning the Western Division Championship.

Mattingly Romanin has become a well-known figure on the baseball diamond. Unfortunately for him, it took a kick in the head from a wayward skydiver to become a household name.

The Hannibal Cavemen will host a special game on July 14 at Clemens Field. The Cavemen will play the U.S. Military All-Stars at 7:05. During this game, all veterans will be admitted free with their military IDs, and there will be special giveaways and fireworks following the game.

Local baseball fans are getting ready for opening day. Unfortunately, both the Quincy Gems and the Hannibal Cavemen will open their seasons on the road on May 28, but both teams will have home games the following night. Quincy will host Springfield, and Hannibal will be visited by Danville. The Gems and Cavemen will not face one another until June 3.
