Tonight is our second game and I am slated to pitch. Below are some pictures from opening night with comments.

Abel Moreno on the mound. Abel was the number three prospect in the Angels organization until visa problems kept him out of the USA. He struggled in his first outing for the Pioneers but will no doubt be a force on the mound for us throughout the season.
