Camacho started the scoring off in the bottom of the 1st with a Grand Slam home run over the left field fence. He then added a two run single in the 2nd scoring not just one, but both Canseco brothers. Jose Canseco followed up a big night yesterday, where he hit a long home run, with a 1 for 2 night with a single, walk, flyout and scored two runs.

Antony Bello went one strong giving up only 1 run. Jacob Wiley pitched a scoreless eighth and Julio Santana had a rough ninth inning giving up 4 runs. The Scorpions look to keep up the good play tomorrow night in their final exhibition matchup against the Lake County Fielders, game time 7:30pm, at Desert Sun Stadium in Yuma, AZ. The Scorpions open up the season Tuesday, May 24th with a double header at home against the Calgary Vipers.
