Philles 0 Blue Jays 3
As everyone knows, the pitchers are ahead of the hitters at the start of spring training (when the teams score a bunch of runs tomorrow, the opening line will be reversed). Jays allowed just 4 hits and 4 walks.
Eric Lauer looked sharp in his inning, giving up a single, and getting a strikeout.
Other’s pitching:
- Tyler Rogers: He was fun to watch. Gave up a single, but got out of the inning.
- Adam Macko threw two innings, one walk, two strikeouts.
- CK Van Eyk had one hit, two walks, two strikeouts in his two innings.
- Jack Cushing had a walk and two strikeouts in one inning.
- Gage Stanifer started the inning with a double and hit a batter, then got a ground out, a pop out, and a ground out.
- Javen Coleman came in for the save. Got a lineout, strikeout, error on the shortstop, and strikeout. He looked good.

- Addison Barger was 0 for 2.
- Kazuma Okamoto was 0 for 2, but made a nice play coming in on a ball and made a strong throw to first. He also booted a ball that went off the pitcher to him, but it had no shot at a play.

Replacements:
