Miami Marlins prospect Alex Williams was named Arizona Fall League Pitcher of the Week on Tuesday. The right-hander struck out 10 across four scoreless innings for the Glendale Desert Dogs during the week of Nov. 2–6.
Williams allowed one hit and reached 10 strikeouts in 14 plate appearances. MLB reported that he was the fastest pitcher in Fall League history to reach that total and just the 10th to strike out at least 10 in a game since 2005.
The outing matched his career high, set for Double-A Pensacola earlier in the year. Kansas City prospect Zion Rose received the league’s hitting award for the same week.
