Final Arizona Fall League Check In


The Arizona Fall League ended on Saturday, November 21st as the Scottsdale Scorpions faced off with the New York Yankees prospects led Surprise Saguaros. If you watched the game the players looked a little tired, and very sloppy, for a Championship Game but at the end of the day the Scorpions went on to win the championship inside their home stadium. The Scorpions beat the Saguaros 6-4 in a game that saw seven errors combined committed, and honestly it could have been as many as 10 errors if not for some generous box scoring, and finished their season with a 18-12 record. Heading into the championship game the Saguaros held a 5-1 head-to-head record against the Scorpions but it didn't matter in the victory.

The Yankees sent Gary Sanchez to play catcher in the game while Tyler Austin and Dustin Fowler started in left field  and center field respectively for the Saguaros. No Yankees pitchers made it into the contest. Sanchez went 1-3 with a walk and a strikeout, Austin went 1-4 with a run scored and Fowler finished his AFL with a 2-3 game including a home run and two RBI. Here is what the Yankees final tally lines looked like from their Arizona Fall League season.
