Single off the handle after being jammed. Late vs Acuna early in AB then one handed fouls to stay alive.Then swings at 3-2 hange for whiff. Last AB he pops it up to CF.

HBP and stole 2b. He has easy speed. Walked again the 4th. Lined a double to LF line in 6th. And a 2 RBI ground rule double in 7th. Dude is a stud and a likely star with eye, bat speed and athleticism. Impressive!

Pops up to end run scoring inning. On in tough spot in 7th and crushes it down RF line….just foul. Then taps it in front of plate and beats the throw to 1b by pitcher who was too casual. Hustle, speed, power - shows it all

Whiffs on 86 chg. Nice pitch by Kent. Worst AB ive seen in AFL by DeVries. Then blasts a HR to RC off Kent to break up a 4th inning no hitter. Next time up he takes a wild hack at change then grounds out. Base running mistake in 7th too. Not his best day

He has a sweet cut. Lines it down the RF line in 3rd foul by an inch. Two pitches later a solid single to CF do drive in a run. He is an amazing hitter when the ball is hittable

Lines out to deep RF in 6th. He cant touch Santos. But in 8th he pops up again vs Johnson. He is a dead pull hitter only and is pulled way over vs him on defense. He looks like he should be able to go the other way but he pulls hips every swing. He has talent, needs to refine his hitting

Lines out HARD to RF in 6th. In 9th with 2 out he swings at ball at his ankles and takes strike 3 down the middle. He still needs work on seeing the pitches better for better swing decisions

He fouls off two pitches that he lined for hits earlier this fall then takes strike 3. In 2nd try in 3rd he again is missing pitches he had been hitting 2 weeks ago. Pops out. Then he rises up in 6th with a long HR down the LF line that rolls over the brim. Off Prosecky the only effective arm used by Salt River in game.He is going to be good when he is not even if not consistent. Pitch selection improvements and more consistent mechanics are key. He is SO young that he could become the next Merrill in SD
