In Arizona: Lou Palmisano went 1-for-4 with a double, walked twice and drove in two runs, Alexandre Periard threw a scoreless 1.1 innings, and Brae Wright struck out two in a perfect inning of work as the Javelinas defeated Phoenix 16-5. The Javelinas have now scored 34 runs in their last two games.
The Javelinas host Phoenix today at 2:35. You wouldn't think homefield advantage in the AFL would be a big deal, but apparently it is: every AFL home team has a winning record at home, going a combined 26-16.
Perhaps today is the day for Angel Salome to break his vow of silence, as well. Angel hasn't played since making his debut on October 8.
In Hawai'i: Logan Schafer went 0-for-5 with a K as the CaneFires lost to Waikiki 9-8.
The CaneFires are off today, and return to action tomorrow.
