Texas Rangers pitchers Josh Stephan and Leandro Lopez, currently toiling for the Surprise Saguaros, were named the Co-Pitchers of the Week for the Arizona Fall League for the week that just ended.
Stephan and Lopez combined to throw the first seven innings of a game on November 1 where Surprise took a no-hitter into the 8th inning. Stephan struck out five and walked no one in four innings in that game, while Lopez struck out seven and walked one in three innings.
Stephan has allowed just one run in 16.2 innings over five appearances in the AFL so far this year, with 17 Ks against three walks.
