Australian Baseball League team season
The
2011?12
Sydney Blue Sox
season
will be the second season for the team. As was the case for the previous season, the Blue Sox will compete in the
Australian Baseball League
(ABL) with the other five foundation teams, and will again play its home games at
Blacktown International Sportspark Sydney
. The team will be defending its record from the 2010?11 season where it had the best
win?loss record
during the regular season.
Offseason
[

]
In July 2011,
David Welch
announced his retirement from professional baseball.
[1]
During the Blue Sox' inaugural season, he won the league's Pitcher of the Year award, and threw the first
no-hitter
in the league's history during the preliminary final series against the
Adelaide Bite
, accounting for the team's only win during the postseason.
[2]
Also in July, an announcement was made that the name of the sporting complex the Blue Sox use for home games was changed from Blacktown Olympic Park to
Blacktown International Sportspark Sydney
. In other national sporting competitions, the complex serves as the training base for the
Greater Western Sydney Giants
team in the
Australian Football League
.
