Spring Training Game 11 - Sunday Afternoon, March 4th in Clearwater
Record - 3-8
One Sentence Summary: Jerad Eickhoff pitched well and Scott Kingery had two more hits in this win against the Blue Jays.
What It Means: We watched Phillies baseball on TV for the second day in a row. It was glorious.
What Happened: Eickhoff didn't allow a run in his 2 2/3 innings, striking out two. Carlos Santana collected his first hits of the spring, going 2 for 3.
Featured Card: Prior to the game, the Phillies honored a small gathering of coaches and players from their 2008 championship team. The coolest sight was seeing Jimmy Rollins in a Phillies jersey for the first time since being traded to the Dodgers following the 2014 season. Rollins said he'd be open to retiring as a Phillie after signing a one-day contract, but that he'd want to actually take the field while doing so. We'll see what happens!
