2012 Spring Training, Posts

The Fightins suffered a tough loss on Wednesday, scattering only 3 runs and 5 hits against the lowly Astros. Phillies pitchers struggled to keep the Astros off the basepaths, surrendering 10 runs over 15 hits and allowing six walks. Vance Worley was tagged for 2 runs and 4 runs were dropped on Pat Misch, 3 unearned. Dontrelle Willis threw 2/3 of ineffective baseball, allowing 4 earned on 3 hits and 2 walks. Former Phillies top prospect Jonathan Singleton went 1-2 with a run scored for the ‘Stros.

Despite the loss, there were a few stand-out bright spots. Hector Luna continued his hot spring (.375), hitting a 9th inning home run and played first base. Jonathan Papelbon continued his spring with business as usual with 2 Ks in the fifth. Newport News, VA-native BJ Rosenberg also K’ed 2 in 1.1 IP as he battles for a spot in the ‘Pigs Pen and keeps his name in the picture for a spot in the ‘pen should injuries occur. Chad Qualls and Mike Stutes also posted scoreless frames.

The Phils look to rebound tomorrow at home against the Pirates. Game starts at 1:05 PM and can be seen on The Comcast Network.

Jamie Moyer threw two scoreless innings for the Rockies today…it would be a great story if he can actually make the comeback.

Wow Luna look like he might be a candidate on this team. Is he going to do great in Spring Training then get picked up and stink it up during the regular season.

Luna is probably this year’s Ben Francisco…

I thought Mayberry was this year’s Ben Francisco?

I saw a few innings of this game. Dontrelle Willis was all over the place…..totally inneffective. I’m rooting for him but so far it doesn’t look very good.
