AFL Update: Oct. 15, 2025

The Scorpions led 7-0 after two and 9-4 after six, but that was too small of a lead as the Rafters paddled back upstream to win, 12-9.

Sean Paul Liñan got the start and gave up a solo HR while striking out three and walking none over three innings.

Two Nationals were in the starting lineup and another came out of the ‘pen:

• Seaver King doubled three times and singled once to go 4-for-6 with two runs scored and three runs driven in. On defense, he had one putout and one assist while playing shortstop.
• Ethan Petry reached base three times on two walks and a Robles while fielding two singles in right field for Scottsdale.
• Austin Amaral got the last two outs in the 9th, rolling two groundouts and stranding a runner.

With the loss, Scottsdale falls to .500 (3-3) but with a loss by Surprise, remains one game back. The Scorpions next play tomorrow night against the Desert Dogs.
