Sonoran Hot Reads (7/13)

Just a first career homer over the Monster

Baseball

- I think Rob Refsnyder showed the Yankees what he can do on Sunday as he picked up his first hit, and then his first home run in the next at bat.

- His Saturday game had a "Welcome to the Big Leagues" moment when Pablo Sandoval slid into him at second, but of course, Refsnyder said it was no big deal

- Former Wildcat Rafael Valenzuela was there for this scary moment
