Hillsboro Hops 2024 Schedule

[David]

The following is the 2024 Regular Season Schedule for the Hillsboro Hops.

Portland enters its fourth season with a High Single-A format. They are joined in that regard by the defending back-to-back league champion Eugene Emeralds, Everett AquaSox, Spokane Indians, Tri-City Dust Devils and Vancouver Canadians. All six teams will continue to play in a division-less league, with no plans in the future to restore the North and South divisions of the original NWL.

Hillsboro remains with its parent MLB club affiliation, entering its fourth season as the High-A affiliate of the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Hops has been in the farm system of the Diamondbacks since they moved to Hillsboro in 2013.

The Hops aim to bounce back after a challenging season which saw them go 56-76 overall which put them in last place. They missed the playoffs for just the fourth time in their history, but for the third straight season. The Hops won the league championship in 2014, 2015 and 2019, and will look to get back to that form in 2024.

The Hops' schedule follows the same format as last season with the team playing six-game series against each of the other teams in the league. They open the season with a three-game series against the Everett AquaSox April 5-7. They then head out on the road to take on the Vancouver Canadians the following week. For the most part, each series alternates between home and away throughout the season, with a few exceptions. Hillsboro is on the road from April 23 through May 5 for a pair of series at the Eugene Emeralds and the AquaSox. The Hops are at home from May 21 through June 2 for two series against the Canadians and the Emeralds. They are on the road from June 18 through June 30 for a pair of series against the AquaSox and the Canadians. Finally, they enjoy two series at home from August 20 through September 1 against the Spokane Indians and the Canadians. September 8 concludes the regular season as they finish out a series at the Tr-City Dust Devils.

Hillsboro will continue to play home games at Ron Tonkin Field in Hillsboro. Javier Colina will take the reigns as manager of the Hops replacing Ronnie Gajownik (pronounced Gah-jow-nick), who left after one season to move up to the AA level's Amarilla Sod Poodles as bench coach. She is the first female manager at the High-A level. Colina, from San Felipe, Venezuela, is a former player in the MLB and in minor league baseball.

It appears the Hops are staying in Hillsboro as the Oregon Legislature approved $15 for a new ballpark.

[Yeseeka]

MONTHLY UPDATE: The start of the Hops' season was pretty up-and-down, but seems to be trending up. They finished their first month of the season 10-12 overall, including marks of 5-4 at home and 5-8 on the road. They have won their last two games and look to trend upward. The Hops sit in third place in the Northwest League standings; just six games back of the first place Eugene Emeralds and five games back of the second place Spokane Indians.

Hillsboro started out the month with a 2-1 series win over the Everett AquaSox. They lost five of six games of a trip to the Vancouver Canadians before splitting with the Tri-City Dust Devils at home, then splitting with the Eugene Emeralds on the road. The final game of April was a 6-3 decision over the AquaSox in the first game of a six-game series.

As a team, the hops are batting, .204 which is tied for the lowest in the league, and have 38 stolen bases, which rank third in the league. Their opponents' batting percentage comes in significantly higher at .296. Hops pitchers have a 3.37 earned run average, which ranks third in the league. They've pitched 195 innings, allowing 163 hits and 73 earned runs.

The Hops start out May with game two of a six-game road trip at the AquaSox. The schedule follows with a series at home against the Indians, a series at the Tri-City Dust Devils and a home series against the Vancouver Canadians. The month ends with the first four of a series at home against the Emeralds.
