Friday Afternoon, March 13th
BayCare Ballpark - Clearwater, FL
Record - 7-12-1
One Sentence Summary: Alec Bohm hit a pair of home runs and Andrew Painter struck out four in 2 2/3 innings in this 11-8 slugfest victory over the Orioles.
What It Means: It seems like the Grapefruit League season is going much faster than usual this season? Given opening day is the earliest (I think) ever on March 26th, maybe it's just the perception I'm getting.
What Happened: Painter allowed three runs on five hits during his outing, including a two-run home run to Samuel Basallo in the third. Bohm gave the Phillies a 2-0 lead in the first with his first home run, and added his second two-run home run in the fifth to give his team a 5-3 lead. The Phillies would pile-on with an RBI single from Garrett Stubbs and an RBI double from the still-not-suspended Johan Rojas. Liover Peguero gave them some cushion with a two-run double in the seventh, making it 11-7, Phillies. Tucker Davidson was hit hard by the Orioles in the seventh, allowing four runs on two hits and three walks.
Featured Card: Here's hoping for big things from Bohm in 2026. Having recently used the 2005 Topps design for my 2025 Chachi set, it bothers me how I'm able to create a closer representation of that set than Topps is. The last name font at the top of this 2025 Topps Archives card is way too smooshed. See here for my version of this card.
