AFL 10.15.15 Salt River at Peoria

Notable Performances:

— Jason Garcia, the 16th ranked prospect in the Orioles organization, impressed with a strong start. The right-hander threw two scoreless innings, allowed one hit and struck out five.

Garcia got some good experience after making his Major League debut this season and is hoping to build on that in the Fall League.

— Rowdy Tellez is a bit of a free swinger – he struck out three times Thursday – but he’s still fun to watch hit. The Blue Jays’ prospect had both a two-run single and a two-run homer in Thursday’s game and has eight RBIs in his first two AFL games.

— Nationals prospect Chris Bostick was the star of the game with two go-ahead homers. The former 44th round pick got a lot of carry on the first home run, but the second was a no-doubter. Read more about him here.

— Reds No. 11 prospect Phillip Ervin came through with a game-tying RBI double in the seventh and showed good range in centerfield.
