Arizona Fall League Recap

Well, I enjoyed my 3 weeks off from recapping, but the next phase has begun: the Fall and Winter leagues. I will now be reprising my role as recapper-in-chief.

Scottsdale 7, Salt River 4

W- Julian Hilario (1-0)

L- Archie Bradley (0-1)

S- Nefi Ogando (1)

Salt River home runs by Astros players: None.

The Scorpions struck for a pair of 3-run innings, which were the only crooked-numbered innings in the game. 

Rio Ruiz was the DH for Salt River and hit 2nd. He went 0-4 with a walk, a strikeout, and a run scored. 

And on the pitching side, Mitch Lambson and Tyson Perez were the final 2 Rafters hurlers of the night. Both of them pitched 2 innings. Lambson allowed a run on a solo homer from Greg Bird in the 7th. He allowed one other hit and struck out 2, while Tyson gave up 2 hits and fanned 4 over 2 scoreless.

Salt River and Scottsdale will play again at Scottsdale Stadium at 6:35 Mountain.
