Spring Training Game 13 - Thursday Afternoon, March 7th in Lakeland
Yankees 6, Phillies 0
Spring Training Game 14 - Thursday Afternoon, March 7th in Clearwater
Record - 8-4-2
One Sentence Summary: The Phillies split their squad and went 1-1 against the Tigers and Yankees.
What It Means: We're a day closer to Bryce Harper making his spring debut on Saturday.
What Happened: In Clearwater, Drew Anderson had another great outing, pitching three shutout innings and striking out six. Victor Arano allowed four Yankees runs in 2/3 of an inning and the offense managed only four hits.
In Lakeland, JoJo Romero, Adonis Medina and Cole Irvin all pitched well.
Featured Card: Anderson intrigues me and it will be interesting to see where he eventually ends up this season. My assumption is that he starts the season with the IronPigs, but he could be one of the first to get the call if any of the intended five starting pitchers goes down.
Anderson is still looking for his first Phillies baseball card, having appeared in just 7 games with the club in 2017 and 2018.
Camp Head Count: 62. My prediction was wrong and no roster moves were made following these split squad games.
