Arizona baseball played a 12-inning exhibition game against Vanderbilt in Las Vegas on Sunday. The Wildcats won 11-6.
Ariel Antigua, Tony Lira and Beau Sylvester hit home runs. Carson McEntire hit two. He's had a great fall.
RHP Benton Hickman started and threw two SO innings.
SOURCES: @PacificBaseball is hiring Toby DeMello as its new head coach, I'm told. DeMello spent the last five seasons as an assistant for Arizona, working with the offense and catchers. DeMello has ties to the NorCal region of California.

Sources: @ArizonaBaseball is hiring #SaintMarys assistant Daniel Molinari as its catching coach.
Molinari helped coach Gaels' backstop Ian Armstrong, who is sixth nationally in defensive runs saved after being top 10 in framing runs saved and blocking runs saved.
Would have been shocked if a power conference school didn’t nab him this offseason. He's just been too damn good at #SaintMarys.

Rikuu should be an inspiration to everyone. Came over from Japan to play junior college ball at Mt Hood CC, earns sch from UofO, gets drafted, and within a few years is in the big leagues. He had to outwork everyone, at 5’6” 150lb, he had to prove he belonged at every stop. He has been the standard everywhere he’s been and an example of hard work really does pay off. Congrats, Rikuu. @A5D0l
