PrintIn Arizona: Josh Butler started for the Javelinas and allowed three runs on six hits in 2.2 innings, but still picked up the win over 2009 #1 pick Stephen Strasburg, who allowed eight runs (seven earned) on seven hits (three home runs) in 2.2 innings. The Javelinas won the game, 9-6. Taylor Green went 1-for-2 with a pair of walks and scored a run, Jonathan Lucroy went 1-for-4 and scored a run, and Lorenzo Cain went 1-for-5, struck out twice, was caught stealing and picked off.
Butler is now 2-0 despite posting an 11.57 ERA in his first two AFL outings.
In Venezuela:
- Adam Heether went 2-for-4, drove in two runs and committed a throwing error in Caracas' 3-1 victory over Zulia.
- Hernan Iribarren went 1-for-5, drove in a run, struck out twice and grounded into a double play in Lara's 6-5, 10-inning loss to Caribes.
In the Dominican Republic:
On Wednesday, Sam Narron made his first DWL start, allowing two earned runs on five hits and a walk in four innings and picking up the loss as Cibao fell to Licey, 4-1. Erick Almonte started the game at DH, batted cleanup and went 1-for-3 with a walk.
On Thursday, Almonte went 0-for-3 with two walks and scored a run in Cibao's 3-2 win over Este.

P.S.
how many innings does a starter need to pitch in the AFL to earn a win?

No minimum.
This is the first year they’ve done it, but they’re basically operating on the spring training rules for wins, since no one pitches five innings in the AFL.
That's all I've got for you today, unless you're interested in some Chris Capuano/Tom Haudricourt Fan Fiction.
