These were the 7 top performers in the AFL Fall Stars Game

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Reds outfielder Yerlin Confidan has made a name for himself in the Arizona Fall League, consistently smoking balls harder than anyone in the developmental circuit. He earned MVP honors at the 20th annual Fall Stars Game by drilling a double and drawing a bases-loaded walk as his National League team won 7-4.

The Sunday night showcase at Salt River Fields featured 10 Top 100 prospects and several of the AFL's breakthrough players. Here were the other top performers:

Jarlin Susana, RHP, Nationals (WSH No. 4/MLB No. 66)
The Fall League's top mound prospect and hardest thrower lived up to his billing, opening the game with 102.7 and 103.1 mph fastballs before striking out Royals outfielder Zion Rose -- the No. 6 overall pick in the 2026 Draft -- on an 88 mph sweeper. Susana averaged 101.2 mph with his fastball and also had the highest spin rate of the night (3,080 rpm) on an 87.2 mph slide piece during a scoreless first inning.

Welbyn Francisca, SS/2B, Guardians (CLE No. 19)
The league's batting leader (.419) and frontrunner for regular-season MVP, Francisca had an infield single in three at-bats but stood out more with two of the best defensive plays of the evening. In the bottom of the first, Phillies DH Aidan Miller smashed a grounder to short that Francisca deftly fielded on a short hop and made a slick transfer to throw him out. An inning later, Reds third baseman Carlos Sanchez scorched a 101.5 mph liner that Francisca got to but dropped, yet he didn't panic and easily got the out at first base.

Kyle DeBarge, 2B/3B, Twins
DeBarge was the evening's top offensive performer, going 2-for-2 with a double, walk, two runs scored and two stolen bases. He coaxed the free pass from Susana, produced the game's top exit velocity with a 104.2 mph single off Braves left-hander Briggs McKenzie (ATL No. 8) in the third and created a run all by himself in the fifth when he doubled off Dodgers southpaw Luke Fox and got such a huge jump on an attempted steal of third base that the pitcher threw the ball away for an unearned run.

Luke Fox, LHP, Dodgers
After his misadventures with DeBarge, Fox settled down and struck out the side. He caught Red Sox first baseman Antonio Anderson looking with a 94.7 mph fastball, got Orioles outfielder Vance Honeycutt on a full-count 93.8 mph heater and finished off Blue Jays DH Aaron Parker with a 93.4 mph four-seamer for a called strike three. Fox found the zone with 12 of his 17 offerings.

Kevin Bazzell, C, Nationals
Bazzell only played the final three innings but made an impact on both sides of the ball. He erased Athletics third baseman Davis Diaz (ATH No. 19) on a steal attempt in the top of the eighth, recording a pop time of 1.86 seconds. He started the game-winning rally in the bottom half, lining a 100.3 mph double off Mariners right-hander Adam Smith, and also drew a walk in the ninth.

Justin DeCriscio, 2B, Padres
Bunting is something of a lost art, but DeCriscio executed a perfect safety squeeze to plate Bazzell with the decisive run. He disguised his intentions by waiting to square around against Smith, then perfectly handled an 88.1 mph fastball up in the zone. His bunt died perfectly on the grass in front of the plate, allowing him to beat it out for a single.
