AFL Update: Oct. 22, 2019

The Sagauros dropped their third straight game, 4-0 to the Solar Sox, but now have their opponent set for this Saturday’s Championship game.

Three Nationals appeared in the game:

  • Luis Garcia batted second and played short but went hitless for the third time in four games. He did a draw walk and had one assist in the field.
  • Nick Banks was the DH and batted fifth but was 0-for-2 with a walk.
  • Pearson McMahan (pictured above) made his debut with a three-up, three-down, three-whiff single inning of work in the 6th

The loss drops Surprise to 16-10, same record as Salt River, their opponent for the title game, which will be held in Salt River.

Today is the final off day for the 2019 AFL season. The Solar Sox and Saguaros will rematch tomorrow night in Mesa.

  2. Well Nats Prospects friends, after four years, we finally have a definitive answer to our question: Is there any stage that’s too big for young Juan Soto? Answer: No. Biggest hits on the biggest stage. And I still remember how excited he was to deliver a walk-off hit in Hagerstown just ONE season ago!

    1. I don’t know if you’ve read this but all year on his days off he would head to Harrisburg to hang out with his friends. Never stops to amaze.

      Now is the time to remember what Luke said about Soto — the chances of seeing someone tear through the system like last year is like spotting Sasquatch riding a Unicorn.

  3. Remember eagerly visiting Nationals Prospects every morning last April as Soto posted ridiculous numbers each day. Obviously special, but even then, didn’t realize how special.

    He’s 20….
