"The Glendale Desert Dogs are on a five-game losing skid. On Wednesday, the Arizona Fall League team that features Toronto Blue Jays prospects fell 10-6 to the Peoria Javelinas, dropping their record to 3-9. Of the eight Blue Jays' prospects on the Desert Dogs' roster, only two of them participated in this game: Josh Kasevich and Edward Duran. Kasevich batted cleanup, while Duran batted eighth in the lineup."
"In the top of the first, Kasevich's first plate appearance didn't go well, as he hit into a double play to end the inning. The following inning, Duran grounded out to end the second inning. Moving to the top of the fourth, Kasevich earned a five-pitch walk and was later cashed in thanks to a Patrick Clohisy home run to give the Desert Dogs a 4-3 lead."
"Immediately following the home run, Duran grounded out to give the Desert Dogs their second out in the top of the fourth. They didn't put any more runs on the board. In the bottom of the fourth, the Javelinas retook the lead and never relinquished it. Kasevich's next at-bat came in the top of the fifth, flying out to the shortstop in foul territory."
