Fall and Winter League Updates

ARIZONA FALL LEAGUE

Just a note about Chris Hicks.  He was on the original roster for the Salt River Rafters and he pitched in two games, the last of which was on October 7th, and he did not have good outings in either of his appearances.  When he didn't appear again, I assumed that he had been shut down but never saw anything about that until I saw a tweet from him regarding going home about a week ago.  Bad (busy) reporter that I am, I kept forgetting to post that.

Salt River over Surprise 7-2
After Wednesday's drubbing by Surprise, Salt River came back strong for the win on Thursday.  Kody Hinze went 1-3 with a walk, an RBI and a run scored.  Jacob Goebbert went 1-4 with his second home run this week.  And Jason Castro, in his third start of the fall season, finally got his first hit (a single) and added on a double for good measure, going 2-4 with an RBI and a run scored.  Jason Stoffel pitched a strong two innings with no hits, no runs, no walks and three strikeouts.

Today
Salt River (11-4) vs. Peoria (7-8) at 8:35 CST

Only one Winter League game involving an Astros player.

VENEZUELAN LEAGUE

Lara over Caribes 8-7
Oswaldo Navarro went 1-4 with a double and a walk in Lara's win.
