You read it right. We could hardly believe it ourselves as the Mesa Solar Sox surprise the Rafters in Mesa. Mondays are known for being bad but, this was an especially bad day for the visiting Surprise Rafters as they are beat badly by the Mesa Solar Sox. The Rafters scored first in the second inning which was answered by two runs of Mesa’s own. It was all downhill from there. Read more

John Raynor of the Florida Marlins had an excellent game against the Scottsdale Scorpions going 3-for-3 at the bat. The Scorpions, who looked like they might pull out a second victory for the season, fell to the Solar Sox by a score of 6-5. Chicago Cubs’ prospect Nate Spears hit a triple to bat in the first run for the Mesa Solar Sox, who scored two in the third inning of play. The Sox managed to keep the remainder of the game scoreless while they performed descent at the bat in the bottom of the fifth inning. Multiple pitching mistakes are what ended up plaguing the Scorpions, including a walk to load the bases and allowing a run to score on a wild pitch. More rocky roads for Scottsdale as they drop another game to the Solar Sox.

Surprise Stadium is located in the flourishing City of Surprise Arizona. Surprise is located in the far west region of the valley and is west of Sun City West. Both the Texas Rangers and the Kansas City Royals call this their home during spring training. It is also the home to the AFL’s Surprise Rafters.
Although the trip to the stadium is a bit of a trek for locals, it is quite a site that would be appreciated by loyal baseball fans everywhere. The classic design and the faux white picket fencing help to make this a gorgeous stadium. Built in 2002, this is one of the newest additions to the stadiums and is definitely a must on the list of stadiums to visit.
