Arizona Fall League (AFL)

Scottsdale Scorpions (8-7) 6, Glendale Desert Dogs (5-10) 5 Box Score

  • SS Andres Gimenez: 2-for-4, 2 R, 2 2B, RBI(14), HBP, 2 K | .316 AVG/.866 OPS

Gimenez continued his red-hot Arizona Fall League season with two more extra base hits and another RBI in yesterday afternoon’s win. He led off the fifth inning with a double the other way down the left field line and scored one batter later on a Alec Bohm double to right center field to give the Scorpions a 4-0 lead.

He got right back to work in the sixth inning, with a runner on first and two outs, with a double to the center field to rack up his fourteenth RBI of the season to extend the lead to 5-0. After an Alec Bohm single moved him over to third base, he would score the Scorpions sixth run on a passed ball.

Defensively, Gimenez continues to play well at shortstop as he converted all four opportunities he had in the game.
