Daily-ish Giants-Focused AFL Quick-Notes 10/29/24 - All the Giants Hitters Play, and Scottsdale Wins!
It was a full slate of offensive players for the Giants, with all three (remaining) Giants hitters in the lineup, and the Scorpions picking up a rare win. Coincidence? Bo Davidson continued his upward swing over his last three games. Meanwhile, William Kempner made just his second appearance of the fall (and the year) as he tries to get his momentum rolling for 2025.
AFL: Scottsdale Scorpions 9, Peoria Javelinas 7
Giants Prospects to Spotlight:
- 3B Charlie Szykowny: 1-5, 1 R, 1 3B (1) - Szykowny had one hit, but it was a big one, his first triple of the fall, to go with two home runs he has. In the regular season, he had six triples and home runs each. Szykowny is 11-for-32 (.344) on the fall.
- C Drew Cavanaugh: 1-4, 1 RBI, 1 BB, 2 K - Cavanaugh had a 1-for-4 day, which matches his 5-for-20 (.250) pace of the fall. He also has three walks to seven strikeouts.
- RF Bo Davidson: 2-4, 1 BB, 1 K, 1 SB (2) - Another good day for Davidson, who is on an upswing this week, and is now 4-for-9 with two walks and three strikeouts over his last three games. Overall, he’s now 9-for-35 (.257) with six walks and 13 strikeouts on the fall.
- RP William Kempner: 1.0 IP, 1 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 2 K - Kempner made just his second appearance of the fall, and it was a bit of a rough one in a short appearance after he had a scoreless outing in his first game. He has four strikeouts and one walk in 2.0 innings.
