The Colorado Rockies Pioneer League affiliate will open its seventh season at home on Tues., June 19 at Mike Lansing Field, as they welcome the Idaho Falls Chukars to town for a three-game series. Following that, the Rockies will then head to Ogden, Utah then Idaho Falls for their first road trip of the season.

"We are excited about this season's schedule," Seth Mathews, Casper Rockies director of operations said. "We open the season at home and end the season at home, as well.
