In yesterday’s Peoria Saguaros’ season opener of the Arizona Fall League, Daniel Murphy played second base and went 2 for 4 with a run scored. He also batted in a run with a sacrifice fly while batting second in the Saguaros’ lineup. The Saguaros defeated Scottsdale by a score of 9-3.

 

Another Mets prospect, third baseman Shawn Bowman, went 2 for 3 with a walk also scoring a run. Mets pitcher, lefty Jason Vargas, gave up three hits but no runs scored in an inning of work. Jason picked off a runner at first to help get out of trouble.

 

Right hander Tobi Stoner gave up an earned run but struck out two in two innings pitched. Potential closer Eddie Kunz pitched the final inning allowing a hit and a walk but struck out two to secure the win. It was not a save situation.
