On Monday afternoon in the Arizona Fall League, the Surprise Saguaros won 2-0 over Glendale. Surprise now has a 10-7 record (plus one tie) with 14 games left on the schedule.
Eric Wood was the only Pirate in the game on Monday. He batted second and played third base. He flew out to left field in the first inning. In the third inning, he was the third of five straight Surprise hitters to strike out. Wood reached on an infield single in the sixth inning. He grounded out in the eighth, leaving him 1-for-4 on the day. He had just two plays in the field and handled them both.
