On Tuesday in the Arizona Fall League, five Miami Marlins prospects made their Mesa Solar Sox debuts. Playing shortstop, Starlyn Caba went 2-for-3 with a stolen base. Unfortunately, Caba exited the game mid-plate appearance after fouling a ball off his right foot. Left fielder PJ Morlando went 0-for-4 and center fielder Fenwick Trimble went 1-for-4 with 2 RBI. Holt Jones (2.0 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K) and Jack Sellinger (1.0 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 1 K) both pitched in relief. The Solar Sox lost, 9-6.
