Spring Training Game 22 - Friday Afternoon, March 17th in Clearwater
Record - 9-10-3
One Sentence Summary: Wearing green hats and jerseys, the Phillies dropped a 7-5 game to the Blue Jays.
What It Means: If nothing else, the team's annual St. Patrick's day game means we're getting closer to actual baseball.
What Happened: Howie Kendrick (1) and Aaron Altherr (2) both homered for the Phillies. Aaron Nola had a bunch of 4's in his pitching line - 4 2/3 innings, 4 runs, 4 hits, 4 walks and 4 strikeouts. Pat Venditte struck out the side in his Phillies debut, striking out the first and third batters from the right side and the second batter from his left side.
Featured Card: Continuing a tradition, here's a card of my favorite Phillies leprechaun.
Camp Head Count: 51 - 7 = 44. Prior to this game, top prospects J.P. Crawford, Jorge Alfaro and Nick Williams were optioned to the minors. Non-roster invitees Cameron Perkins, Taylor Featherston and Pedro Beato were reassigned to minor league camp.
Ben Lively was also optioned following the game.
