D-backs' Drury homers to spark big inning in AFL | dbacks.com
Right-hander Roberto Osuna's outing Thursday in the Arizona Fall League began with an easy inning. Entering in the third in relief inning of fellow Blue Jays' prospect Sean Nolin, Osuna allowed a single and struck out two batters to maintain Mesa's early one-run lead against Salt River.

They would bat around -- knocking Osuna out of the game -- and score six runs on six hits.
