01:25here are 11 other notable players from the AFL's premier event. Sam Antonacci, 2B, White Sox.

01:32Numberdure 11. Antonacci is recognized for his ability to make contact with the ball and get on

01:37base played a significant role in the American League's win. He contributed to the scoring in

01:42the fifth inning by drawing a bases-loaded walk against Cohen Moreno. From the Cubs later,

01:46he secured the victory in the bottom of the ninth, with a sacrifice fly-off Darlin Saladin of the

01:52Cardinals. Anderson Brito, a right-handed pitcher for the Astros, ranked No. 7, Brito, displayed some

01:59of the most impressive pitching skills in the fall league, particularly during a scoreless third

02:56standout starters in the Arizona Fall League this autumn. He began the game impressively,

03:01needing only 10 pitches to complete a flawless first inning. His performance was bolstered by a

03:06remarkable running catch, made by right fielder Enrique Bradfield Jr., who was ranked No. 4 in

03:11the Orioles' system, as he snagged a line drive hit by Seaver King, who was ranked No. 7 in the

03:40had a challenging day at the plate, going 0-for-2. However, he contributed to the American

03:46League's early lead in other ways. In the third inning, when King hit a ground ball that deflected

03:56out at first base. He also started the bottom half of the inning, by drawing a walk, and sprinting to

04:02first base. In the second inning, a wild pitch thrown by Jesus Broca of the Brewers got past

04:35at 104 MMPH, which was the only extra base hit of the game, off a 95-by-MMPH slider from

04:44Dallas in the second inning. This hit contributed to him scoring the first run of the game. Additionally,

04:50he walked, and scored again in the fourth inning. Braden Montgomery, the top prospect for the White

04:56Sox, and ranked No. 1 in their organization, and No. 35 in MLB, made an impact on the bases for the

05:02American League. He scored a run after drawing two walks, and also hit a flyout that traveled at 98.7

05:43a right-handed pitcher for the Yankees, and ranked No. Descendos No. Descendrein.

05:54he has emerged as one of the most effective pitchers in Arizona, boasting an impressive 2.13 ERA,

06:00a 0.71 whip, and an opponent batting average of 159 over 12.23 innings. His strong performance

06:31a left-handed pitcher for the White Sox, and ranked No. 5 overall, and No. 88 in MLB,

06:38was the only top 100 prospect to take the mound in the game. He managed to navigate through a single

06:44and a walk to pitch a scoreless second inning striking out two batters in the process.

06:48He recorded strikeouts against Chris Suero, ranked No. 15 by the Mets, and Starlin Cabba,

06:54MIA No. 5 featured his signature pitch, a slider that clocked in between 82 and 86.

07:00MEPH, while his fastball reached speeds of 95 to 98. MEPH, Miguel Ugueto, an outfielder for the

07:10Cardinals, made a remarkable transition from the minor league segment of the 2024 Rule 5 draft,

07:16to becoming a celebrated figure in the National League. He successfully converted an 84-millimeter

07:21slider thrown by Dario Freggio of the Tigers into a two-run single, which completed a three-run rally,

07:28and brought the game to a tie at 4-4 in the top of the ninth inning.
