SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- On the verge of ending their Arizona Fall League season-opening seven-game losing streak, the Glendale Desert Dogs instead suffered their eighth straight loss in excruciating fashion Thursday night.
Leading 1-0 with one out and the bases loaded in the bottom of the 10th inning against the Salt River Rafters, right-hander Kyle Zurak induced a tailor-made double-play grounder from Jaylin Davis (Twins). Shortstop Thairo Estrada relayed the ball to second baseman Errol Robinson (Dodgers), who couldn't get the ball cleanly out of his glove before making a hasty throw to first baseman Jared Walker (Dodgers), who dropped it as the tying run scored.
