AZL Brewers 10, AZL Reds 6

 

AZL Brewers Boxscore

 

Two pro debuts last night for the Baby Brewers, both NDFA catchers. Alex Guenette started the game and went 1-3; he was pinch hit for by Johan Mojica in the 6th, who finished the game at backstop, going 0-2.

 

Keston Hiura lead the way again on offense, going 3-5. When I went to bed last night, he was 2-5 but apparently one of the Reds' errors was turned into a hit at some point. All three hits were singles. Weak.

 

Nick Egnatuk, Kenny Corey, and Julian Jarrard each chipped in with 2 hits. Each had a double and a single. Jarrard's hits were his first as a pro. Pat McInerney added three more walks to his season total, now giving him 10 in 15 official at-bats.

 

Pseudo-rehabbing Drake Owenby got his second start and pitched a clean two innings, save for a walk. He struck out four. Matt Hardy pitched a scoreless eighth and ninth to earn his first win as a pro.
