It was another short week for the Desert Dogs, with the home run derby on Saturday and the Fall Stars Game on Sunday. Monday’s game was cancelled due to wet grounds and none of the big names played on Thursday. So who stood out in limited looks last week?
——
Chase Harlan has made his mark in the Arizona Fall League, establishing himself as one of the circuit’s most intriguing power-hitting prospects. On Tuesday, he mashed his 5th tater in just 17 games, tying him for second in the league.
Harlan’s getting warmed up for Saturday!

Disappointingly, Harlan was scheduled to appear in both the Home Run Derby and the Fall Stars Game but was a late scratch from the former on Saturday and didn’t appear in the big game on Sunday. No word on the reason, but with only a week left in the season, Harlan’s time in the AFL may be over.
Charles Davalan and Eduardo Quintero appeared in two games a piece last week. Chuck D singled and walked twice, while Quintero added a pair of free passes himself. Neither have looked quite like themselves at the plate this fall, though Davalan re-learning second base may have something to do with his offensive struggles.
Southpaw Cody Morse continued his string of appearances without surrendering an earned run. In Friday’s game, he came in with runners on the corners and two outs to strike out a batter and end the threat. He also pitched the following inning, working around an error and a walk to post another clean sheet. He’s one of just nine pitchers who haven’t allowed an earned run in the AFL this year.
A pair of Dodgers’ hurlers appeared in the Fall Stars Game. Lefty Luke Fox was given the 5th inning. He started his outing by grooving a 1-1 cutter that was smacked for a leadoff double, then threw a pickoff attempt away to score the run. However, the 24-year-old settled in and struck out the next three batters he faced, all on fastballs.

Brooks Auger took the mound in the 7th and issued a leadoff walk. After recording his first strikeout and inducing a lineout, top Yankees’ prospect Dax Kilby came in as a pinch hitter. A first-pitch fastball missed high, so Auger used his cutter to get a pair of swings and misses before blowing him away with a letter-high heater at 97 to win the battle. The National League would go on to win the game 7-4.
