THIRD TIME IS NOT A CHARM; PHILS’ TRIPLE-A SPRING LOSES FIRST GAME, 9-2

After starting with back-to-back wins this spring training, the Phillies’ Triple-A squad(2-1) dropped their first game Thursday — falling 9-2 to the Triple-A Tigers at Carpenter Complex in Clearwater.

Following two terrific offensive performances, the squad was outhit, 12-6, while also committing all three of the game’s errors in the field.

RHP Ryan Feierabend was the starter and losing pitcher, allowing three earned runs on five hits in three innings. The next two pitchers — RHP Brian Bass (3 ip, 3 h, 1 r, 0 er, 3 bb, 3 k) and RHP Jason Grilli (1 ip, 0 h, 0 r, 0 bb, 1 k) — had the most effective lines of any of the five hurlers who appeared Thursday.

The offense was highlighted by OF Chris Frey, who went 2-4 with an RBI out of the leadoff spot. SS Troy Hanzawa (2-3) also collected two hits and the lineup’s other RBI. Former IronPig C John Suomi doubled in his only AB for the squad’s lone extra base hit.

Team next plays a rematch against the Triple-A Tigers at 1 PM on Friday at Tigertown Complex in Lakeland, Fla.
