| 2022 R-Phils Phillies Top 25 Prospects #3 |
Spring Training Game 6 - Wednesday Afternoon, March 1st in Fort Myers
Record - 4-1-1
One Sentence Summary: Top pitching prospect Andrew Painter made his much-anticipated spring debut and the Phillies played to a tie against the Twins in Fort Myers.
What It Means: I'm ready for the season to start.
What Happened: Painter gave up a run on three hits in his two innings of work, touching 99 on the radar and striking out Max Kepler looking. Not a bad start for the 19-year-old who could be the Phillies' fifth starter to start the season. All the Phillies runs came on home runs. Jake Cave hit a two-run homer in the second and Darick Hall hit a two-run homer that banged off the center field batter's eye in the fifth. The Twins tied it up in the ninth on a wild pitch by Phillies pitcher Braden Zarbnisky followed by a throwing error from catcher Aramis Garcia.

Scott Kingery and Cave both had multiple hits for the Phillies.
Featured Card: I fully expect to be inundated with Painter baseball cards once he makes his debut, but for now I have a grand total of just six of his cards in my Phillies collection. This is the first card of his I added, back in April 2022 from the Reading Fightin Phils Top 25 Prospects set. Painter was #3 on that list last year, and he's since made the climb to #1.
Camp Head Count: 65
