Spring Training Game 25 - Monday Afternoon, March 18th in Jupiter
Record - 11-11-3
One Sentence Summary: The Phillies offense couldn't solve the Cardinals pitching, as the team dropped this one, 4-1.
What It Means: With today's game against the Astros already cancelled because of rain, there are just six games remaining on the Grapefruit League schedule for the Phillies.
What Happened: Zach Eflin pitched 5 innings, allowing 3 runs (2 earned) on 4 hits. Bryce Harper had a pair of hits (his first of the spring) in a minor league game.
Featured Card: Strangely enough, former Phillie first baseman Carlos Santana, was the big story for the Phillies yesterday. ESPN published an account of Santana taking a bat to a TV following a game in late September, angered that his teammates were playing Fortnite during the game. The game in question was summarized here and I mentioned in that post that Doug was successful with adding autographs from Scott Kingery, Roman Quinn and Rhys Hoskins prior to the game.
With this news, Santana, back with the Indians this season, solidifies his position as a Phillies Room Favorite despite his short time with the club.
Camp Head Count: 48. I would expect the roster reductions to start coming fast and furious at this point.
