Pecos League Debut at Suplizio Field Welcomes Baseball Back to Grand Junction
Baseball returns to Grand Junction this summer as the independent Pecos League launches its new team at Suplizio Field, the Grand Junction Razorback Suckers. The team, named after a prehistoric native fish, will open its home season on June 5 against the Roswell Invaders, following their league road debut on May 28 in Santa Fe. The selection of the Razorback Suckers name emerged from a fan contest featuring thousands of submissions and reflects local heritage. The team has also announced a series of promotional events, including dollar beer nights, glow‑in‑the‑dark games, and themed nights, to engage the community throughout the shortened season.
