The first game of the Arizona Fall League season on Monday was busy for Pittsburgh Pirates prospects, with all four pitchers seeing action, as well as Henry Davis. Tuesday night’s game was extremely quiet, as Nick Gonzales was the only Pirates player in action.
Gonzales batted first and played second base. He grounded out to shortstop in the first inning, then struck out swinging in the third. In each of his next two at-bats, he flew out to right field, leaving him 0-for-4 to that point with Surprise trailing 6-0 in the eighth. They mounted a comeback with two outs in the ninth and Gonzales batted with the bases loaded as the tying run. He couldn’t tie the game, but his two-run single made it 6-4. The next batter struck out, ending the game.
Surprise plays tomorrow night at 9:35 PM ET.
