Last night the scouting world gathered for the annual Fall Stars Game featuring baseball’s brightest future. Want to see a 104 mph fastball first, hurled, and then crushed into oblivion? We’ve got you covered!
The Giants had just one representative at the event, the flame throwing Melvin Adon, who has had a sensational fall. So sensational, in fact, that heading into the game Jim Callis ID’d him as the pitcher with the best slider in the league coming into last night’s marquee event.
Adon entered with two outs and a man on and was a little shaky with the fastball command at first, surrendering hits to the first two batters he faced.
