Royals' Staumont bounces back in stellar AFL start

SURPRISE, Ariz. -- With the Arizona Fall League in its final week, Josh Staumont is making sure that both he and the Surprise Saguaros go out on a high note.

The Royals' No. 10 prospect dominated on Monday, allowing one hit over four scoreless innings as Surprise rolled through Peoria, 9-3, at Surprise Stadium to increase its lead over the Javelinas in the AFL West division. The performance was in stark contrast to his previous start on Nov. 8, when he allowed eight runs (seven earned) on five hits and four walks in just 1 2/3 innings.
