The Glendale Desert Dogs dropped 7 runs on the Peoria Javelinas in the Bottom of the 1st inning in yesterday’s Arizona Fall League opener, eventually plating 15 runs in a bonkers 15-13 victory.
The contingent sent to the AFL from the Cincinnati Reds was front and center in that offensive barrage, with Matt “The Rain in Spain Stays Mainly on” McLain (2 for 3, HR, 2B, 3 R, 2 RBI, BB), Tyler “Coach” Callihan (1 for 3, 3 R, 2 BB), “Sister” Christian Encarnacion-Strand (2 for 4, 2B, 3 RBI), and Edwin “Lose, or Draw” Arroyo (1 for 3, 2B, R, RBI) each making their own significant marks on the day.
