I spent the weekend out of town and away from the television, but I DVR’d the Arizona Fall League futures game . I’ve only watched an inning thus far (saw Chris Heisey hit a homer and Yonder Alonso get gunned down trying to stretch a single into a double), so I haven’t seen 2009 first-round draft choice Mike Leake take the mound yet.
