Homestand Highlights: Sod Poodles Welcome Double-A Affiliate of the San Diego Padres - San Antonio Missions

AMARILLO, TX (June 10, 2025) – The Amarillo Sod Poodles will host the San Antonio Missions (Double-A, San Diego Padres) for the upcoming home series. The Soddies earned a series victory in Tulsa (Double-A, Los Angeles Dodgers) this past week, taking the season series eight games to four and winning the final three contests. Amarillo’s relievers have excelled, tossing 11 consecutive scoreless innings and 16 strikeouts over the course of the winning streak. The Soddies welcome the Missions back to the Yellow City for their second and final visit of 2025, as Amarillo won the previous series four games to two at the end of April.

The upcoming six-game set starts with the Pointy Boots de Amarillo identity and Taco Tuesday. Coinciding with Wiener Wednesday, the first 1,000 fans to enter the ballpark will take home an Amarillo Sod Poodles hat. After discounted drinks on Thirsty Thursday, the weekend arrives with not one, but two drone shows. On Friday night, the Soddies take the field as the Calf Fries for the third time in 2025 and a military-themed drone show and fireworks display can be seen postgame. The fun continues on Saturday with another drone show, themed to a night at the movies with fireworks to follow.

Finally, the homestand concludes with Father’s Day at HODGETOWN, the first of several 6:05 p.m. Sunday games of the season. Gates will open at 4:00 p.m. for fathers and sons to play catch on the field. Additionally, the first 1,500 fans to enter the gates will receive a barbeque grill set.
