Spring Training Game 3 - Sunday Afternoon, February 26th in Clearwater
Record - 2-1
One Sentence Summary: Trea Turner made his Phillies debut, and Ethan Wilson hit a grand slam in the sixth to break a 6-6 tie and ultimately lead to the win.
What It Means: What I was hoping would be a productive day turned out to be an enjoyable day as I couldn't pull myself away from watching this game. Chores can wait a little bit.
What Happened: In the first inning, Turner singled in his first Phillies at-bat, stole second and came around to score on a bloop single to left from J.T. Realmuto. Turner would add an RBI-single in the second. I'm going to enjoy watching him for the next 11 seasons. In the fifth, with the Phillies leading 2-0, the Twins' Elliot Soto hit a grand slam off reliever Brian Marconi. Nick Castellanos hit a two-run home run in the fifth, and he's already looking better at the plate than last season. In the sixth, Kody Clemens hit a solo home run and Vito Friscia would walk with the bases loaded to tie the score. Wilson then hit his grand slam to give the Phillies a 10-6 lead.
Featured Card: I'm confident Turner will get his share of featured cards during the 2023 season, so I'll go with Wilson here. (Not to be confused with Weston Wilson, who was the featured card from Saturday's games.) Wilson had a bunch of 2022 minor league cards in 2022, including this one from the Topps Heritage Minor League set.
Camp Head Count: 65
