Arroyo now has hit safely in eight straight games for the Scorpions, while the four hits he collected Friday improved his batting average to an AFL-best .447 through nine games. The 20-year-old shortstop also has scored nine runs and tallied nine RBIs in that span.
"I feel great," said Arroyo after his team's decisive win. "I'm just trying to see pitches and stay within myself. Coming out here you're facing a lot of really good pitchers, and, for the most part, they're all around the zone. So I'm trying to hone out an area and put a good swing on that pitch.
