Isotopes draw second-largest minor-league crowd Sunday in rout of Oklahoma City

Orbit and the home fans had plenty to celebrate as the Isotopes put up a big offensive night while drawing one of the biggest crowds in the minors.

ALBUQUERQUE — The Isotopes turned Sunday into a celebration at the ballpark, combining a dominant offensive performance with one of the largest crowds in minor-league baseball that day.

Fans filled the stands to an announced 8,033 for the matchup against the Oklahoma City Comets. The home team poured in 17 runs on the afternoon, finishing with a 17-4 victory over Oklahoma City.

The lively crowd amplified the team’s big win — even the club mascot got in on the celebration as the offense produced a steady stream of runs. The blowout provided plenty of excitement for attendees and helped create a festive atmosphere throughout the game.

That turnout was the second-highest across all minor-league games on Sunday. Only the Nashville Sounds drew a larger crowd that day, with 8,812 fans in attendance.

The strong home turnout and convincing win gave the Isotopes a boost on and off the field, highlighting solid community support and a potent offensive display to build on moving forward.
