"Josh Kasevich moved up in the lineup, batting first, while Cutter Coffey hit cleanup. On the third pitch of the game, Kasevich flew out in foul territory for the Desert Dogs' first out. Later that inning, Coffey drew a six-pitch walk and proceeded to steal second base. He was left stranded. In the second inning, Kasevich hit into a fielder's choice for the second out of the inning, while Coffey's strikeout later that inning ended the inning. Their next at bat was in the top of the fourth, as Kasevich flew out and Coffey grounded out."
"On the pitching side of things, it was a rough outing for both Yondrei Rojas and Chay Yeager in relief. The former gave up four earned runs and two walks while not retiring an out, bringing his season ERA to 30.86. Yeager did a little better, allowing three earned runs but getting three outs. Diving deeper into the stats, Coffey's lineout in the seventh inning had an exit velocity of 106.1 mph, the fourth-hardest-hit ball of the game."
The Glendale Desert Dogs fell 16-6 on the road to the Salt River Rafters, marking a sixth consecutive loss. Josh Kasevich moved into the top of the lineup and produced several hard-hit balls but did not reach base consistently. Cutter Coffey worked a walk, stole second, and later recorded a loud 106.1 mph lineout and a single, but was often left stranded. Relievers Yondrei Rojas and Chay Yeager each endured difficult outings, with Rojas failing to record an out and allowing four earned runs, pushing his ERA to 30.86. Exit velocity data highlighted hard contact but limited offensive results.
