2010 Rising Stars Showcase
The 2010 Rising Stars Showcase was the fifth Arizona Fall League All-Star Game. It pitted the East Division against the West Division. It was played on November 6 at Surprise Stadium.
Result[edit]
The West beat the East 3 to 2 on a walk-off home run by Leslie Anderson. It was a low-hit, low-scoring affair, with only one batter -- Anderson -- having a multi-hit game. The East scored first, in the top of the first, but the game was knotted up in the bottom of the second by the West. Each team scored another run in the third. The score remained tied until the ninth, when Anderson hit his dinger. Bruce Billings got the loss; Chance Ruffin earned the win.
